    In case you didn’t realise sixty 10 is using a no4 not a strong p14
    I have alway loaded 2 grains less for 2206 vs 2208 loads.
    38gns is listed as maximum in the ADI manual.

    Just wanting to ensure that sixty 10 realises your load exceeds the safe maximum.

    Yep that's what the brackets were for around the P14 bit, my intention was to answer the quest for real world loads. Obviously with the data set shown its not a Mk 7 load (higher Velocity) either. But the information should still hold some relevance for the OP.
