As a matter of interest the Federal .470 ammo I received the other day obviously has quite a bit of air space as you can hear the powder when you shake the cartridge, Why don't Federal use a filler or is it uneccesary because of the powder type ? thx in advance, Mike

As mentioned above--Federal uses a 216 primer which us mere mortals can't have...the .216 is a hotter primer than the .215 and therefore is not needed..
