Well I am loading for 30-30 and wanted to use the LEVERevolution stuff for the moderate ballistic improvement and loaded one batch with the factory 32.0 gns, and another with 34.8 gns which is Hornady's last load recommendation before the max load of 37.0. Well Hodgdon's book says the max load is 35.5 gn's compressed. I guess what I am getting at is I am kind of nervous about shooting that hot a load and am curious if anyone else has used this or a comparable combo?
Also with the 34.8 gn load I cannot feel or hear any powder sloshing around in the case, is this what they mean by compressed or do I just need to pull the bullets put a smaller charge in?
Sorry for all the questions, I am just starting loading and even though I want to experiment and learn on my own, I don't want to blow myself up either, ya know?
