in regards to lift height...
my shells are the same weight,but it seems like the lift is going past the shell.i recovered one of the failed shells and the outside is black and it splashes upward like the pressure is going around the shell.all im using is a cardboard cylinder(about1in)wide by 3in tall.that is my shell.attached to the top of the shell is a smaller cylinder with the lift powder in it.this is then inserted in the tube upside down.blackmatch as the fuse.it seems like it fits tighter at the middle of the whole shell.maybe this is why.im going to add thickness to the main shell instead of the lift part.hopefully this will correct the situation!!!
