Wow. That's a big difference and an even bigger difference from what my personal loading log shows. I'll have to research where I found the load data now, but I show that I shot 14.0 gr of AA#9 with a Hornady JHP 158 gr bullet, CCI small magnum primer. My shooting notes say that it exceptionally accurate, no soot at all, and moderate recoil in my Blackhawk. The day was only about 25 degrees though, so maybe the cool temp kept the pressure sort of low. I also shot some hard cast loads with 12.6 gr of #9 that day with a 158 gr Chey Cast bullet. The log shows no fouling, no leading, and great accuracy. I remember shooting those loads that day. They might be the best stuff I have found for hot loads. I didn't make any mention at all of difficult extraction or any other high pressure signs.
