Cpt Curl, I've dutifully copied your load into my reloading recipe book. I'm one who's been very nervous regarding fillers. Can I give me the particulars about what you're using? Maybe a picture? It seems that putting 50gr of powder in a 100gr case would require a filler. I have read that the exception seems to be powders like 5744.
In the first post to my thread on the Farquharson there is a link to an earlier thread in which I discussed my load.
You are quite correct. I am using two 1/2" diameter x 1" long foam wads cut from 1" bats of seat cushion foam purchased from WalMart.
Here's a copy of the link I am referring to:

I gave some details of my first try with the rifle on this thread:

Believe me, I have cast thousands of bullets. For the price of the bullets I am using, I'm buying and not casting.
I hope this helps.
