GAB!!! That 42.5 grain load will crack your bolt lug!


I'm glad I decided to read some of these posts regarding 30-40 reloads.  I loaded some Hornady 220 rn with 43gr IMR4350 last night.  Sounds like I should pull those and reload with 40gr.  I'm a total amateur at reloading.  I was using the Lyman 50th edition as a guide.  They list 40gr as a start load and 45gr as max.  I was curious because the Hornady guide listed for most powders max loads under the start load Lyman listed.  Really confusing for me!  I didn't look at the Hornady until I was finished. (Not the best time to check other reference material)
