Well perhaps a newer manual would help

Speer, Hornady Manuals and Alliant online differ from the 2005 addition.

Edit: Speer #14 lists for a 180 FMJ FN 7.2 grs PP

Hornady #8 (new) lists for the same bullet 7.1

Alliant (online)lists for the 180 gr GDHP 7.2

These are shot out a Sig and a HK which do not like light loads.
