[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 307936, member: 11717"] I would recommend just starting a min starting load. What you think might be medium load, might actually be over max for your combo of components and rilfe. I started at what I thought was a good safe starting load (min, not med) once when testing some RL 17 and TTSX's in my 300 WSM. One grain later (two half gr increments) I had pressure signs, about 4 grains lower than what I thought max would be. Taking short cuts will eventually catch up with you. How much time and effort is it to load and shoot 3 or 4 more rounds? Take care, -MR [/QUOTE]
