Thanks,

Apparently 'socking is done to remove excess graphite. It's a new one on me. Here's someone who did it to Wano powder: http://www.laflinandrand.com/madmonk/WANO_Schuetzen.pdf

You may want to check over at castboolits.com and cascity.com under blackpowder. There are a few really knowledgeable BP shooters there.
