[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2405232, member: 15054"] I finished a few .308 brass conversions and fired one at 5 feet into a box that had a plank of oak behind it. I loaded the case with 6.2gr bullseye and then tore a square of TP into 4 pieces and folded one of these small pieces into a small square and stuffed it into the case on top of the bullseye. I packed it tight and then added 82gr of #12, as this is all that would fit with room leftover for my 357 gas check. loaded into my hipoint and fired it off. I found the brass is a tad long.. hung up on ejection. And i feel i could reduce the amount of TP for more volume in the case for added shot. A pic of the box shot at 5 feet and the wood that captured the shot. And a picture of the TP (toilet paper) wad i recovered..not burned up just a bit grey.
