I like the foam backer rod filler too. Looks like you cut it flush with the case mouth and compress it a little when seating the bullet. I haven't done that, just cut it to be right at the base of the bullet. I guess in such a voluminous case the little compression is negligible and your results certainly speak for themselves!
That is what I do. I use open cell foam and this material is very soft. After seating the bullet, the compression is only very slight. The weight of the filler is only 2,5 grs.
