Yes, good stuff. Thanks, RKG. Your results for 13.0 grains of H110 and the Hornady 100 grain XTP pretty closely matched my results for the same combination, except that I was using a magnum pistol primer. Interesting that Brian Pearce (who's one of the few gun writers who actually seems to know what he's talking about) advocated the use of a standard (not magnum) pistol primer. It's pretty much dogma that magnum primers are used with slow powders like W296/H110, so that's a departure from conventional thinking.
I think the guidance should be when authoritative information causes a problem, not when it doesn't really matter. If the primer spec from a bullet or powder maker says this primer or that and seems to work fine, I don't need to know that someone thinks otherwise, yet without any competitive credentials and while disclaiming any legal concerns.
