    Much smaller. Cut a 243Win down by about 1/3.
    I think I used to run about 27g 2208 in mine under a 105 VLD.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Not settled on a load yet but I can't get enough in the case with most powders. 47 of 2213 is about where I think it will be at which is not compressed slinging 105 AMax at around 3150.
    The BR is an extremely efficient case in comparison.
