I load mine with 14.4 gr of Herco. This is a moderate load. I use a 160 gr wheel weight cast bullet with a gas check and sized .309".

Lots of loads. My favorite is 20 gr of SR 4759. 18 gr of 2400, 11 gr of red dot, those are good too.

For a bit more oomph try 30 gr of IMR 4895. That's about the max for a wheelweight bullet I find though.

Yes, you'll still be fine with those. The loads I quoted are good up to 200 grains.
