Mine is loose enough to rotate but I didn't take it apart.

Got some 165 rcbs sil's loaded over 31 of 4064 to try out. Is this a good powder for a 20 inch barrel? I know it's a slow powder, and it's my first time out with it.

What do you use to cut the slice for the stock? Cut off wheel? Getting that 1/32 slice seems tough.
Let me show you where I got the idea per Larry
"If well fire formed cases are used to get a good gas seal w/o case obturation (there won't be any with a load as such) so the full force of the...
I use a similar boolit in my 14 inch Tender with 8 ish of 231. Very nice load. I drilled out the primer flash holes on a box for use with it.
I got the recipe from Larry if I recall.
