-Pour went really smoothly.  One grain looked "perfect" with the propellant
-settled evenly and a couple mm of open gap at the top of the casting 
-tube.  We think this one may have been slightly under-filled compared to
-the others, all of which had some evidence of propellant sticking to the 
-cap and leaving an uneven top surface.  This resulted in some quick trim
-work with a knife, ergo final grain masses not matching all that well.

-These four grains were assembled in an AT 38/480 case with a random AT
-delay grain from the pile of left-overs, and flown in Robert's Madcow
-Little John at Tripoli Colorado Spring Fling 2015.  We used a Slim Gem
