[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 303234, member: 2011"] my experience and opinion only: Books keep one from pressure problems when starting out. After that they are pretty much useless to me. When I use the book I look at the powder producing the highest velocity. Then start with a low load and work up to where I get "my" pressure signs which are just a bit of extraction resistance. When the remmy extractor button hole leaves a raised shiny spot that is a bit too much. If that powder doesn't work the powder burn rate chart becomes my friend. Then a search on the web for load ranges for that powder in my particular cartridge and its off to shooting again. Alliant, Hodgon, RamShot and other manuals can be found on the web. [/QUOTE]
