Yep I have found errors before. And I always be very careful and very nervous about using ANY data that I have never used before.

That's why I like bulky powders. I will keep preaching it over and over again, and then I join the choir.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16 KJV

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004

At the risk of showing my ignorance, why would he use a "shotgun battery cup primer" in a rifle metallic cartridge case?

Most likely because the pressure caused the case to expand and deform that much.

I have seen some HORRENDOUS overloads listed on various sites on the internet; actually pulled a few off when I was a moderator because they were dangerous, then got lambasted for it from the poster...."I've used that load for years, You don't know ****, ect., ect." If they indeed did use that load for years, then they have a very active guardian angel!
One needs to remember that when dealing with loads off of the internet, it is very easy to hit the wrong key and hit a "2" instead of say, a "1".......and most folks don't proof read their posts for typos!
