[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 509947, member: 15748"] Greg, The data in the original manual was almost certainly correct, however, you're using a different load. The data for the Berger 190 will most certainly be different than that of the old Speer 190. You've changed a component, and that means it's a different load from the ground up. You discount the guys in the lab, but I can pretty well assure you that they got the info correct. The thing you need to understand is that it was correct, for THEIR rifle, with THEIR bullet, with the particular lot of powder THEY used, the particular lot of primers THEY used, etc.. When you change anything, you change the equation. Bottom line is, every reloading manual needs to be read as merely a report that they tried this particular combination and got these results. In so much as you'll be using different components (even if they are of the same make and type, they're almost certainly different lots), it needs to be worked up with your particular set of components and in your particular rifle. This is why that little bit of advice is virtually identical between all of the various manufacturers. It's good advice, and you need to heed it. [/QUOTE]
