Because the book wasn't made with your rifle. Throat, chamber, internal barrel dia. choice of powder primer and bullets can all affect your pressure and velocity.
I have some loads that are maxed out 1-2 grains below "book", and others that are maxed out a few grains above. I can swing my velocities 200 fps just by changing primers and brass, and in some instances adjusted my powder charges accordingly.
