    when you half fill the case then turn it on its side all of the powder gravitates flat then the primer cannot properly ignite it like it would if it was full so you get a double detonation potential
    or so I was told by the old fella who showed me how to make subs.

    he just used the fluff out of a pillow by the looks of things

    I decided that looked like it wasnt the best way forward and went with trailboss

    his subs were A LOT cleaner than trailboss if that matters to you, but they were no more or less accurate
