    Yes good points, beware if the charge gets to low and the case isn't full enough it creates a dangerous situation where the entire case full of power can ignite in one hit, rather than the systematic burn that happens in a normal case that's full of powder.

    Yes

    Small powder charges can result in a very dangerous situation developing which can end in tears very quickly.

    The small powder charge can detonate when ignited causing catastrophic failure rather than burn in a more controlled or predictable manner.

    Use Trail boss to develop your sub load.
