Thanks guys - I was really tickled with it after the first 5 shots and shouldn't have kept shooting at the same target, I knew I was going to spoil it's appearance - HA!

88Mau - You might be better off using plastics for the heavier walls. Paper liners in brass will work for a shot or two, I suppose. The mag-tech brass are quite thin and allow large sized wads, as-is/are?huh - anyway, a tube of heavy card (heavy in strong and dense) would be the best bet if they can be found.

Barring an upsidedown plastic base wad for a centring cup, a real felt wad or two, centre punched out with a wad punch would serve the same purpose, that of holding the ball in the centre of the bore while it passes up the tube. Stole that idea, not mine.

Jerry - the butt is indeed narrow and with a paltry 3 drams of fine powder it did come back fairly hard. I was wearing my magnum foam shoulder pad + my down parka (a mite chilly here) and still felt the recoil during those 10 rounds. My shoulder has some torn cartilage front and back that has taken my off the heavy kickers for a while. I'd say those rounds kicked about the same as my 9.3x62 loaded with 286's at 2,520fps, or 270's at 2,640fps.
