I have a F40-7 reload here and while I can't measure the grain without

opening the bag, (it is in the liner tube) the liner is 4 1/8" and the

spacer is 1 7/16" so 2 1/2" for the grain is about right. The delay is

5/8" so maybe you have a F40-10.



I just looked up the HDK reference and the F40-10 delay is 3/4". That

delay is also used in the F22-5J reload for that case. Or even the

F22-7J using a different delay formula but same length.



I am sure that cleared that up. :-)

Stuart, I can't help with the motor, but I'll add that I've gotten in the habit of putting labels on built motors, and including such details as the delay,...
