Hi all, I've heard rumors of chamber ringing and other bad things about Dacron filler. Are these old wives tales?

Thanks,

Chuck


Regards,

Chuck

No, it really can happen but I never had a need for filler for my 505. Most reasonable charges provide a 75% or better fill.

But I haven't tried Blue Dot in my 505! hilbily

Mostly I hear about it in the big Nitro Express cases that have a lot more empty space and hangfire or worse if you don't trap the powder at the back of the case.
