I had some Hodgdon HS-6 powder left over and a bunch of 124 grain cast LRN bullets I made and wanted to use them up. The closest load data I could find was from my Modern reloading 2nd edition by Richard Lee. It stated a load for a 125 grain lead bullet using HS-6 start grain 5.9gr. and a max. of 6.6gr. with a C.O.L. of 1.125"
So with this information I loaded up some at 6.5 and 6.6gr. cartridges. Afterwards I was looking online and seen some other sources saying to use a less of a charge????
What should I do? Will these be safe to shoot? Is ok that I used data for a 125 grain bullet?
