I use 19.5 of 20/28 with 7/8 CLAYBUSTER wad but I flare the powder cup so seal off any powder drift for all straight wall hulls.

I prefer to use the SG-16 wad for most of my loads, regardless of which hull. Ballistic Products has them back in stock, fortunately for me because I just used up the last of the case I bought years ago.

This!

It’s more ideally made for Remington and Compression formed hulls.

the trick is finding 20/28 if you don't have it already . Been the hardest powder to find last 6 mos .

700x is the only powder that I have that does not migrate up past the powder cup. Plus even the CB0078-16 has too much room for 1oz, needs some filler. Maybe 1 1.8 oz?

I'm trying flax seed filler through a rifle powder measure today.

Casebro your right about the filler. If you don't want a filler try some green dot. It works on the rems, and the 2pc AA 16 win hull.

For 7/8 s 0z start at 19 gr. I use 19.5 for my trap loads. To me recoil is light.
