[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 2506129, member: 423"] I have found a discrepancy in load data between two manuals. It was a 9mm load with HS-6 I believe. One manual the minimum load was above the max load of the other. I checked with some people who I trusted who used that same bullet and powder in the same gun I was before proceeding. My understanding is powder burn rates / load data can change over the years, or due to new testing capability they might increase or decrease loads. For that reason, I *never* start at the max load. EVER. Most people will recommend this also. Start towards the minimum and work up. If you do end up close to max; repeat your work up (or at least part of it) if you change anything. Different gun, barrel, primers, bullet, brass. [/QUOTE]
