While researching recipe for my 9mm, Hdy 124gr, XTP bullets I found a huge variance in Blue Dot and Unique powder charges between Hornday 8th Ed and Lee 2nd Ed.
Unique - Hornady states - 4.0 - 5.0 while Lee states 5.1 - 5.8.
Blue Dot - Hornady states - 4.8 - 6.6 while Lee states 7.0 - 7.9.
How can two sources be so different for the exact same bullet, powder and primer?
I'm beginning to wonder why I wanted to start metallic reloading after trying to figure out how to interpret these recipes.
Thanks for any help.
