[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 848527, member: 10"] All of those should work very well. When I was using load manual data, I always started about mid level and worked up. I have found that most factory load data is so under pressured that it means nothing in the real world. Their velocity data is good but the grains of powder to get there will be very different. This is why a chronograph is so important to test your loads over so you know your velocity. Velocity is simply a function of pressure and time. The number of grains of powder to get that pressure will vary. I am not saying to NOT follow manual load data. With a good experience level its a simple thing to develop your own loads but until you get that experience, confidence and are comfortable doing it, stick with the load data listed in manuals. And as always, if you go beyond listed data, you have to accept responsibility on yourself for any possible issues that may come up by doing so. Your on your own if you go over listed data maxes so you better know what your doing and accept all responsibility as your own. [/QUOTE]
