Copied from Rick W.--The basic concept of starting low and letting the load in your particular pistol tell you facts is still around for the guys that still have their vision and some fingers.

I have spent several weeks working up a proper loading for a .30 caliber Luger just to stay safe.
I strongly suggest you do the same.
Very good advice.
