I can not agree with you more dipper. I always look at at least three manuals when developing a load with a bullet/powder combo I have not used before. And then I tend to go with the more conservative listings.
Addtionally, I keep copious notes on my loads and how they performed at the range in different guns.
Deleterman, this is a hint on some good procedural habits I have gotten in to. I have formed a lot of others as well.

The 4.8 that DMXZ posted would be a dangerous load in a .38 Special, but OK for a .357 Magnum.
