Thread: Anyone run reduced 300wsm loads

Reason I ask is you may want to use some kind of filler on top of the powder if it's only going to half fill the case to ensure good ignition, old man runs a reduced load in a 416 rigby (not sure which powder) and said he had to do that (fluffy stuff out of a pillow i think) as ignition wasn't very good and really inconsistent over a chrono

thats the beauty of trailboss...it is specificaly designed to fill up a case.....

It's over half full, but not by much. In all the reading I've done not many people are using the fillers with this powder, they just say use a magnum primer. I've sent an email to hodgdon and waiting there reply, might end up switching to trailboss but I don't really want to as there doesn't seem to be issue with what I'm doing
I prob should put it over the crony aswell
