    I had a good run with Highland brass which I am informed is the same manufacturer as PPU. Mine likes 42.4gr of 2209 behind a 140gr SP so I do not think it is the charge itself. I would try seating the bullet deeper giving you a shorter OAL. I think from memory mine is about 2.9 but I will check later today.
