Got back to the range today. With a 180 grain bullet, here's what happened:

7.7 grains of Winchester 630 - cycled 4 out of 5 (clise, but too light)

7.9 grains - every round (5) cycled,

8.1 grains - every round (5) cycled,

8.3 grains - every round (3) cycled

No signs of excessive pressure in any of the loads.

Thanks for all the info and advice!
