Son #2 coaches track and cross country for our local parochial school. The price of .32 short black powder blanks seems to have gone nuts, $36 per box of fifty. (And the dealer gave him a deal). I told him to save the empties so today he gave me about 200.
Set up my press with 32 sizing die, sized and primed all 200. Found one factory load, pulled the wad and found five grains weight of what looked like ffffg powder. I loaded the cases with five grains if GOEX fffg, put a 5/16" tablet backing wad on top and a dot of elmers glue. 200 rounds for about $9. I donated it. He's a good kid. Says they are louder and smoke more than the factory ones.
