Difference is simple and mostly true,,, DIFFERENT LAWERS. Most loads if not all in books are low to say. The companys that do the loads do not want to be guilty of you blowing yourself or the gun up in your face,so they make their max loads safe under most conditions for all guns. They do put in warnings to never exceed max loads as another way of clearing themselfs of any liability that would or could happen if your load more than they say. They have to take into account old and new guns and be safe for both.
