I need the max load for a 280 Rem, 139 gr bullet and H4831 powder, and the same for a 280 Rem, 154 gr bullet and H4831. My Hornady manual is the third edition, and I think the max's are on the high side.

Many Thanks!

How about a stroll down memory lane? I have the October 1967 Hornady manual. It shows 53.0 to 59.5 for the 139 gr. spire point and 50.1 to 57.0 gr. for the 154 gr. both with 4831.
