Yes... I do, but thanks for posting the Hornady data.

Hodgdons website shows 23.0 to 25.3gr
Speer #14 shows 24gr to 26gr
Hornady shows 20.8 to 23.2 (same as mine)

Ive always noticed Hornady to be on a low side... manual written by lawyers I guess. (Then again the BL-C2 exceeds what Hodgdons recommends...)

General consensus online seems to be around the 24.5gr to 25gr as the preferred loads to get velocity up, but its still not at M193 levels. I'm not necessary trying to duplicate M193, but I would like to keep it as fast as possible without the accuracy going to total crap.

Unfortunatly I dont have a chrono to really test this stuff myself.
