Note: All loads used Federal cases trimmed to 1.15", Federal 150 primers, and Oregon Trail 215-grain lead semi-wadcutter bullets. Average of ten-shot groups shot from padded rest at 25 yards over Oehler 35 chronograph. Ruger Blackhawk .41 Magnum revolver with 4 5/8-inch barrel and iron sights. All loads shown were safe in the test firearm. Reduce all loads by one full grain to start and monitor pressure signs.

The website is fine. Some versions of Internet Explorer force it to display flush right instead of left. Don't know why; it displays fine on all my test browsers. Just scroll over.
Did I mention I was half asleep when I clicked on your link[:D] It works fine[;)]
