[Shooter 2.5]

You just listed a charge that's over a half grain too hot. The closest I have seen is a charge of 5.5 and that's still a hot charge. Get that post pulled or I'll do it and next time, you idiot, stay within specs.

That's 1/2 a grain less than the Sierra manual calls for.

Try doing a little thing called 'reading' before you post.

It helps one avoid looking like an idiot.

From the Speer Manual:

6.4 grains Bullseye with 185 grain Gold Dot bullet:
(Note, Speer lists 6.4 grains of Bullseye as a maximum load. My original response was a full 1/2 grain under the listed maximum.)

986 fps.

From the Lee Table under 'Starting Loads'(Another note, that's a Starting Load, not a maximum load):

5.9 grains Bullseye:

995 fps.

Now, an apology for having my original response pulled would be nice, seeing as how you were completely wrong and all.

And just for the record, Lurker never, ever exceeds the maximum recommended loads published in recognized reloading manuals.

Everything I post here has been personally used by myself in factory made firearms for at least 1,000 rounds.

Next time, check your facts and you will avoid the pain of me making you look like you don't know what you're talking about.
