So I read the speer manual and it clearly states that you should not just swap bullets or components which leads me to...
If it shows that the test loads were with federal brass and I have winchester, can I use my brass or should I get some federal brass? Also I see in many catelogs bullet options for companies like magtech, winchester, federal, but my speer manual only lists speer bullets. How do i get loading recipies for these other components?
I'm guessing that I can swap componets for similar parts, (115 grain bullet for 115 grain bullet, 130 grain bullet for 130 grain bullet, and never ever mismatch them), and then just start at the minimum load and slowly work my way toward the maximum (if I need to get that high). But I don't want to take any chances. What's the scoop here?
Thanks.
