Default RE: I messed up

Yeah, I wasn't going to suggest using those, 1 grain in that size case makes a big difference.

I was just reading an article on the 17 fireball. Memory fails, but I think an overcharge of one grain would destroy the gun in that small case. It was a small amount.

I remember reading that a 5% increase in powder results in 40% increase in pressure. That is just a rule of thumb of course.
