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

Does anyone have a bushing chart for perfect pattern?
Perfect Pattern has been listed on the official MEC Bushing Chart for awhile, you can find it here:

As always trust your scale rather than the bushing chart. Two bushings of the same size can throw different amounts of powder.

Since my post I found that PP is a dirty powder, it doesn't leave flakes of unburnt powder, it's more like a coating of soot. Hoppes cleans it right up but the first pass will look like coal tar.
