Thank you both for your replies.
I can understand your hesitation and concern and I do not want you to do anything that makes either one of you unconferrable with that said. I have been reloading Pistol: 9mm, 38, 44 mag. 45 ACP, 357 mag. Rifle 280, 30-06, 7mm mag, AR 223, 9mm, 308. Shotgun: 20 gage 12 gage steel and lead from buck shot to target loads for sporting clays for over 25 years. I also served in the USAF for 20 years so I know about doing things safely. I also own a computer shop so I am always looking for all kinds of info / data. For instance between talking with a local self made gunsmith and the internet I now mill out my own 80% AR lower receivers.
In the USAF I was a hydraulic mechanic on 8 plus different airframes. So I know how to fallow the book. Also by knowing the book and the systems I knew how to work the aircraft hyd systems to my advantage.
For instance myself and my team where deployed to repack a C-5 nose landing gear strut. On arrival we found that we where missing a fitting that would allow us to use a hand pump to release a clutch brake to allow the strut to be retracted for repacking. My experience and system knowledge allowed me to perform a procedure that was not in the book and never spoken of or to my knowledge ever performed before. So I know how and when to take a calculated risk. I still have both eyes and all of my fingers and toes so at 53 years of age I gess I am doing something right.
Now you both know me a little, but I do not know either one of you at this point. So just like in the military you have to build trust before I am going to trust you to watch my 6. So what does that mean even if you did give me load data I would, as I would hope anyone would, scrutinize it closely before using it.
I am patiently searching for alternate powder data for the 450b round.
