I posted a ton of info over on http://p223.ezboard.com/fbritishmilitariaforumsfrm2

I find that either a very few grains of a moderately fast pistol powder like Unique, or about 30.0 grs of a slow pistol powder like H4227 worked well for me.
Did you use a filled for the hollow space left in the case, or are the powders you're advocating reasonably resistant to positional sensitivity to not matter much?
