Some of my BP Revolvers shoot better with a "filler" like Cream of Wheat to keep their Balls close to the Forcing Cone for best accuracy.
One day while positioned in the middle of the tables at the Pistol Range, I got confused if I loaded the previous cylinder or not?
Now I HATE to look down into a loaded chamber, so I added just a few flakes of COW atop the powder to show the powder level in dim lit conditions.
Just a few flakes out of a scoop lights the chamber like it was in the sunshine!
I also carry a small flashlight to check for a loaded chamber in dim light.
Gotta use all the tricks we can the older we get!
