    Seems way too low for 150gn pills? For 162 AMAX like @stug says you’d expect to be running 71-72 gn 2217. So for 150gn rule of thumb says add 1gn powder for 10gns pill weight - so more like 72-73gn 2217 with a 150gn pill, but always work up from lower charge. I’d be starting at 69gn and working up, watching for pressure
