Powder migration

What are you guys doing about powder migration? Specifically with the CSD wad. Am I the only one having this problem

If you are experiencing significant powder migration --- enough to noticeably effect the performance of the load --- I'd look for a load with a different wad/hull combination.

I have used a overshot card on top of the powder on certain load to stop migration.

No issues here but use the VP 90 and 92.

I’m assuming your using a Fiocchi hull? Big think when you seat the wad you have to do it painfully slow. It’s the only wad where I have to be very diligent about how I seat it.
