Fillers
I generally use a dacron fiber filler (used for pillow stuffing) that the wife gets me at the sewing store. It keeps light charges down by the primer when loading cast bullets. For strictly range use, I don't bother as I can tip the barrrel up to settle the powder, but for field loads I like it.
On one of my assignments, I had access to an indoor range in the building that my office was in. For some reason I was experimenting with Cream of Wheat filler at the time. After a few hundred rounds over lunch hours in the indoor range, there was Cream of Wheat everywhere! Needless to say, that became the clean up project on a Friday afternoon.
