    Should mention I'm not after full power magnum loads, just wanting to get the pressure up to get these bullets to obturate to see if it helps with accuracy and leading. The 5.5gr shoots like a 38 special to me.

    I load using the old lee book. Seems a bit hot in the upper ranges, which is why maybe they watered them down a bit in newer books.
    I loaf AA#7 and AA#9 and get full house magnum loads.
    You just need to try and work up slowly, watching for all the normal pressure signs
