MORE POWDER. Then think about easier ignition and faster burning of the finer granulation. No wonder your shoulder felt it.

Since I shoot a Hawken. No matter what the charge with cast its shooter always suffers especially so with a heavy charges. Since your basically shoot a hawken rifle off your upper arm muscle and not your shoulder. For a while I wore a Past shoulder pad. But its kind of cumbersome to wear. After a while I took it off. I should have known better. But its been awhile since I shot cast. We learn from out mistakes. Taking the Past off was a Dandy that afternoon.
As far as compacting a load. We all have our little tricks and technique's. If we didn't at least try. How would this sport progress. What took place 150-200 years ago may not apply today because of mans ability to change things for the better most of the time. My Thanks, to all those who commented here.
