[QUOTE="DUCKMAN11, post: 2600993, member: 122313"] 3 reasons 1. It's interwebs advice on how to build an explosive device that will be set off 4" away from someone's face. I'd feel horrible if something catastrophic happened off my "advice" 2. It's going in a gas gun that I've never shot. Behind a bullet I've never shot. I don't know what his operating system consists of. I don't know what BCG and ESPECIALLY bolt he's running or what buffer and spring and gas system he has. So at 22.5gr it should be a very mild and probably very safe load. 3. I only have personal experience with benchmark and a good starting load with it is 23gr. IMR 3031 is a little faster burning than benchmark but not by much. So by down charging a little in the beginning he could easily have a safe starting load to work up from. [/QUOTE]
