Thanks for the information on the bushing you're using. I recently bought an 8 pounder of perfect pattern and plan on switching over to it, but then I ran into an issue where I couldn't find a bushing chart for it.

I really appreciate you posting the bushing size and now I have a starting point.

Does anyone have a bushing chart for perfect pattern?
