I've loaded 13.8grs of Blue Dot behind a 125gr JHP bullet in the .357 mag for years as a factory equivalent full power load that chrono's from my 4" revolvers at around 1,450 fps.

I talked to the Alliant rep at the NRA convention regarding their warning. His response to me was that they noticed the problem with recent lots of Blue Dot and they where trying to figure out what has changed. He said if I hadn't had any problems and I was using an older lot of powder then don't worry about it.
