Just out of shear curiosity edteach. Why are you exceeding the advertised maximum charge weight of 46.0grns and using 47.0grns of H414?
Every publicized form of reloading data I have gives a maximum charge weight of 46.0grns of H414 when using a 180grn RN .311" projectile. Seems a tad excessive considering all the published data out there suggesting otherwise so, I am very curious as to where you have recieved your reloading data from...
