yes , you will be crushing powder when seating the bullet . the case fill is 112% at a max charge . the 99.7% is the powder burnt % . 112% case fill is a little more than I care to work with . I feel there are much better powders to work with in your combination , than retumbo .
 
Ok im starting with imr 4831 because its whst i have on hand besides retumbo
