[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1335878, member: 22069"] It doesn't need to be the same bullet you want to use, just something close. Alliant DOES list the 215 Berger and the 220 Sierra, both with the SAME max charge. As previously stated, and as advised by Alliant (and basic reloading practice), back down 10% and work back up toward the max listed charge, watching for pressure signs. Also, when you do back down to the starting load, this is a good time to perform a seating depth test similar to that recommended by Berger. Establishing your OAL early in the process will go a long way toward finding a true max charge, while helping to avoid surprises in the process. At the end of it all, you can still fine tune seating depth in small increments without pressure concerns. [/QUOTE]
