9 to 10 grs should be about right for your 180 gr boolit. Depends on the label on the can, if it is Hercules it is a little slower than the Alliant Blue Dot.
I have loaded up to 13 grs of Alliant BD but it was excessive.

It is a faster powder than 4759 so might lead some if you use too much with no gas check.

I'll give it a try thanks, seems pretty low in the case should it be wadded?
