I checked the 2008 Hodgdon booklet and it shows 7.5 grains max with a Remington 230 gr FMJ at 17600 cup. this is almost +P so 7.0 grains would be about right. Velocity listed is 960 fps. with the jacketed bullet, so the lead with the 7 grain charge should be about the same. That's stepping out for a hardball load!
