[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 2859538, member: 6777"] You should always use an up to date book. If you used one from say 1973 and it says max load 25gr. of 2400 and the new book says 21gr. They may have changed the powder formula and the results could be terrible. Some of those freebie loading pamphlets just have 1 load and tell you to back off and work up. I usually start at the bottom and work up because if you build 3 guns exactly the same, they all may not like the same bullet/powder combination. [/QUOTE]
