Steve, I was looking at your data relating to the 7mm Remington Magnum and I noticed some data that looks incorrect and possibly dangerous if used by someone. You show a maximum charge of 73 grains of IMR 4831 when using a 150 gr. bullet. That's more powder than the maximum load for IMR 7828, a slower burning powder. I was thinking that 66 or 67 grs. would be the maximum for IMR 4831 and 150 gr. bullets. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't want you to get in trouble for someone using a load that's substantially over max.
You're quite welcome and let me add that I appreciate all the information you've got on your site. There's not too many places you can find loading information for the 7.65mm Arg. Mauser for example.

Good advice, but so far there have only been two errors on my pages (luckily), and I have found as many as 15 in published manuals (no name mentioned).
I try to triple-check my typing, but like I said, my fingers worked faster than my brain twice...

While we are on topic about your site.. There is one thing thats really been buggin me lol.. Under your Cartridge Drawings and Dimensions section.. In the metric system cartridge's you have 7/300 Westherby!!!! Instead of Weatherby ... Excellent site by the way
I use your site regularly and love it. I don't load anything without checking three sources. May rarely load past my sources, but I want a good place to start.
I spent ten years as an editor of legal material and I can assure you that nothing gets published without a few errors.
