My old Sierra Manual list starting loads for 265 gr cast @ 34 grains of H110. My newer Hornady book shows only 26 grains as a starting point, but my 2005 Hodgdon lists 36 grains of H110 for a 260 gr jacketed. What gives?? Is this the famous "Legalese" factor of the newer reloading guides?? Also these loads were developed for a revolver and I will be shooting a new Puma 92. There must be some degree of built in safety with the pressure losses of a revolver against a rifle. The Hodgdon manual also warns on page twenty-seven not to reduce H110 loads by more then three percent. So, can I reduce the starting loads for my new rifle, or will 34 grains of H110 cause damage ?? What do you'al think??
