    Need load for 230LRN and 231 or HP-38

    .45 ACP Load

    I'm looking for a good load for the 230 LRN useing Win. 231 or HP-38
    My Hornady book shows 6.2 as a Max, So I loaded a few rounds with
    5.8gr of HP-38

    However my Speer shows 5.6 as Max
    And Hogdons shows 5.3 as Max

    So what gives ? is my 5.8 OK or should I pull them down and back them off.
    I was hoping to have them around 850fps

    Also they all show different OCL
    So what feeds the best
