So I'm newer to reloading but I've recently got some hornady 135 a-tip bullets to play with. I'm useing gunworks brass with h4350 the book recommends from 40.1 - 42.9. So I load 30.5 - 43 in .5 increments at 41.5 I got very light pressure. I did this test to find pressure but didn't expect to be 2gn lower than book, shooting a bergera hmr b14 seated .010 off. Neck tension .001
Have any of you experienced this or is this common? And does that mean my velocity will be higher at a lower powder charge.
Unfortunately my chrono died so I didn't get to record any velocity
