Wondering if I use 4756 in either a Win compression formed or Federal hull with the claybuster 1 oz wad if there will be any powder migration problems like I had with Universal? |

Winchester CF hull , there shouldn't have been any with the Universal. Are you sure it is migration and not just a few flakes of powder due to static electricity.
Federal hull will be worse than with Universal. |

Sorry; didn't write it quite right. I've had bad bloopers using the Fed hull with Universal and the AA16 wad. Any worry of bloopers with the Fed hull,4756 and the AA16 wad?How about with the Win cf hull, 4756, and the AA16wad? Thanks |

No worries with the CF hulls , those wads are designed for that hull . Not sure about Fed hull depending on the flake size of the powder . |

There shouldn't be any problems with loads using the Winchester CF hull, the WAA16 wad and any powder.
You are likely to have some migration using the WAA16 wad with the Federal hull and SR4756, which will create the bloopers. |

How much 4756 do you have? |

The AA wads are designed for the tapered hull, the Federal hull is not tapered.
Result = bloopers in many cases.
4756 is no longer being made, when it is gone, it is gone.

Back when we went thru the long powder drought and it was being discontinued, I found 1 pd in a shop. Just figure its time to use it and how. |

Absolutely the worst powder ever made, especially for 20ga lightening bolt semi auto field loads, burns squeaky clean, meters great, low volume... disgusting!.... DO NOT USE!!. I'll forward an address to send it to for proper disposal,
