Does anyone have any idea what the min & max charges are for 9mm 124g fmj using hodgdon hp-38? I keep getting conflicting information, some places I'm seeing 4.4g min - 4.8g max & other places I'm seeing 4.4 as max. I was loading 115g fmj at 5.1g and getting good groups so I'm wanting to work up to 4.8 for the 124's. My Lee 2nd edition manual doesn't even list hp-38 for 124 fmj but it does for 125g fmj (4.8max listed). I feel like I'm ok to go with those numbers since the listing is for a heavier bullet not lighter. Please let me know if any one has ran 4.8 of hp-38 out of a 9mm safely. Thanks ahead of time. B.t.w. just noticed that the max load for 125g lead is 4.4g
