I couldn't figure out how to send you a pm, so I'll just post here. Hope I don't offend anyone. The IMR/Hogdon site did not list 4198, or at least I couldn't find it. I am looking for a very light load and currently shooting 12 gr TrailBoss with good results but it's hard to find. No recoil, barrel stays cool and clean, neighbors don't whine and occasional half moa groups. Still scares the snot out of the cat tho. I shoot in my backyard range and although I have a good backstop and the nearest picture window is two miles away, I worry abt ricochets. I'm thinking of going way down with 4198 but I've read just enuf abt detonation to be concerned. What do you think of dacron filler? I always used Cream of Wheat in black powder cartridges but I'm told that it can jam at the shoulder. Any other ideas?
