For the most part, I use Lyman's 49th addition. During the time when powder was sparse, I would use Hodgdon and Accurate tables as well because of the additional powders I could use and were available. I just purchased Hornady's Tenth addition and then I got curious. I was going to make up some 158 g 357 mag and being low on 2400 powder I wanted to see what others I might have in stock I could use. I opened up Lyman, Hodgdon, and Hornady's charts and found a world of difference. The big question is what chart to use. In my case I will most likely stay with Lyman's and Hodgdon's and use Hornady if I decide to change my routine. I may be all wet but I think the loads here are for the more advanced reloader.
