[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 1751061, member: 23"] I wanted to do a little research before I tried it. I haven't found anything so far that indicates it would be a problem. My manuals all state not to load in excess of what is posted, but they don't mention reduced loads. I was thinking of (for example) loading 2 grains below the posted data and then work my way up to the load that works best 1/2 grain at a time. I planned on loading an experimental round and then a dummy round. This would allow me to shoot one round and then see if the slide cycles and loads the dummy round like it should. Inspect the barrel between tests. When I'm satisfied with the function, I'll move on to more rounds in the magazine. [/QUOTE]
