Hello all - the title pretty says it all. How many grains of Goex FFg would normally one expect to fit in a Starline brass 45-70 case? Just loose filled, as it dipped? I only get almost 60 grains - does this sound correct? Not compressed, just lightly filled to the brim. That's the same amount I get in my 50-70 Starline brass case also. I was really expecting more - maybe 70 grains? What's normal - can "normal" be used?
I've read using a drop tube well over 70 grains can be compressed in a 45-70 case.
Thanks for any info.
