Title: Re: ERROR IN LYMAN 50th RELOADING MANUAL FOR KRAG

Totally agree with you regarding consulting several sources. I wanted to post this one because I view it as potentially catastrophic and specific for 30-40 Krag reloders. Max to max load is a 7gr difference, that’s substantial. I wouldn’t want to shoot that load or even be next to it if someone else were to shoot it. Everyone who starts reloading started off “new”. I know I reached out to several of my seasoned reloading friends and read a lot before I ever loaded my first round.   But that’s me, not everyone. I could see a younger me potentially following a dangerous recipe from a printed reputable 50th printing and not consulting other sources. Maybe I’m still new enough to reloading myself to have not experienced this extreme before, but my intent is simply to alert reloaders to a potential overcharge.
