This held the powder down against the primer.2.0 gr loads shot very well1.8 gr loads were accurate and consistent 1.7 gr loads were barely clearing the barrel.I could see the bullets in flight, before striking the 10 yard targets. 2 bullets did not clear the barrel, though both were at the end of the 4.62 inch barrel.I now load a minimum charge of 2.0 gr.A nearby shooter  commented that he could smell cornbread.</blockquote>
