Fire form help needed

[bobcat93]

I would like to use the cream of wheat method to fire form my 17 fireball brass.
How do I know what powder to use and how much?
Any recipes would be help full
Thanks

What caliber brass are you wanting to fire form???? I can think of no round that would make sense using cream of wheat to fire form.

I am using 221 fireball brass and necking it down for 17 fire ball..I'm having some issues. I have a new barrel so in the sake of barrel life I wanted to try fire forming the brass to iron it out before reloading..
It doesn't need much but I wanted to try it . I'm just not sure what pistol powder I should use, and how much to start with for such a small case..

ignore this comment and search "cream of wheat" or "COW" on this site it.

I've tried it and it didn't work on the 17 fireball cases..I'll just load them up and shoot them
