I have been just putting the powder in, dropping in a pre-lubed wad and then the ball. Pushes the ball down aways into the cylinder.
I've read where you should use cream of wheat or corn meal over the wad to 3/4 from the top of the cylinder before putting in the ball.
What is the purpose of doing this? Getting the ball closer to the cylinder end for more accuracy? Safety reasons?
Hope an old pro here can explain. Thanks in advance.
