Trail Boss burns super fast. I don't have QuickLoad at the moment but as I recall it was indicating that the TB would be completely burned virtually before the bullet moved, maybe 1/4". I was loading rifle cartridges with far more pressure and powder (7.5-15gr) but I'd bet 3.5gr would burn nearly instantly, probably before the bullet clears the case.
