That's pretty much exactly how I do it too. The 3/4" caps leave a 2g charge about 1/2 to 1/4 as deep as it it wide. I've never had an issue with the powder all burning, but I think the dog barf and tight masking tape help that the most.
Thanks...
Yeah,,
I'm big on the tight taping it up,,
but I also like to stay with 1/2" to make the powder deeper..
I don't know if I'm right,,
and this may be a bit anal,,
but I just put the ematch a little bit into the powder,,
so the powder lights from the top down,,,
I think that ensures a complete / thorough burn....

Oh yeah,,
I had heard a long time ago about plastic centrifuge viles throwing shrapnel around the airframe on ignition....
Is there anything too this ???
This is why I've always avoided using them in this manor,,,
but my next build will require their use....
