    Greetings @Hunterdave,
    I think I may have an answer. AR2209 was sped up around 2,000 and the Hodgdon/ADI max of 53.5 grains of AR2209 with the 162grain has pressure in CUP which suggests it was for the older and slower powder. You seem unable to provide velocity for your load but if it is anything over 2,750 fps then your load is too hot. This may be from the powder or the Norma cases may have less capacity than the Winchester cases used by Hodgdon. In short if your velocity is over 2,750 fps then your loads are almost certainly too hot.
    Regards Grandpamac.
