[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1734765, member: 78056"] Yes, start out with a mid-range load if the weight is within 5 to 10 grains, then work up slowly, watching for the pressure signs you learned about in the manuals. It is no longer acceptable to use "150gr data" for all 150 gr. bullets. If you are using 150 data for a cup & core bullet (jacketed lead core), that data will NOT translate to a solid copper (monolithic) bullet! This is one reason to have several current manuals as you are more likely to find your exact components listed in one of them. Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
