How?

[bronko220002]

OK I dropped off my barrel at the PO this morning to go to Hankins but I have a question. How does one put an over powder wad evenly down the bore with a muzzle brake? Or maybe I should ask, does the brake interfere with keeping the wad flat?

Start the wad as even as you can in the load through funnel. Place the bullet on it and seat it.

The base of the bullet will keep it straight all the way down. Same with a veggie........

I just did this video while holding my cell in one hand, loading in the other

Thanks Encore. I was wondering about that. I thought the loading funnel was ,just for the powder. Its nice you can start the bullet down it too.
My 45-70 barrel is on its was to Hankins for the conversion. I checked the bullet fitbin my other .45-70 just for kicks and it is a nice fit. You can see the rifling engaging the bullet. Hornady 300 gr SST.
