Charlie,
I have loaded Alcan brass cases for 50 years. The problem is I only loaded heavy loads for my fluid steel 10s. I have no knowledge of light loads for damascus guns. I do know some things about reloading Alcan brass cases though.
1. Inside diameter of Alcan brass are tapered. Alcan allbrass wads are also tapered. The blue side goes to the shot and fits up like a morris taper. You can also use Alcan PGS wads under the nitro cards.
2. Ball powders have always worked best in brass cases. I shoot HS6 and 540Winchester.
3. The Alcan maxfire 220 primers are a must for loading alcan brass cases. They are hot!
4. The Remington 57 primers are not the best choice. If you will PM your mailing address to me then I will try to UPS you some 220 maxfire primers.
Good luck
David Lien
