Reduced Powder Chamber
« on: March 13, 2013, 07:37:41 AM »
 Do you use foil wrapped powder in a reduced powder chamber? And if so, at what diameter chamber do you switch from loose powder to foil. Thanks.... Gary

I use loose powder in mortar chambers because they are easy to see into and the powder falls in by itself.  For howitzers, I use the foil bags since getting the powder in the right place is more difficult when it is loose.
