Yes, this is the fact of the matter.

I was using a lot of Blue Dot in the 41 at the time the warning came out.

I still have a few rounds loaded with a 210 over a medium speed load of Blue Dot.

I appreciate the thoughts on the 10mm. I have a new (to me) 1911 to start loading for.

There are 500 new Starline cases with Rem primers waiting on a set of dies. (mid August) I am going to start with Universal and 180 gr Berry's FP, until I get the Universal used up. Then there is a couple pounds each of HS-6 and Titegroup. But I think the Titegroup is better suited to the nine mm, (I am loading for grown kids)


Glad someone cleared that up. I couldn’t remember for sure if it was 10mm or 41 magnum that Blue Dot gave the warning on. Like I said before, I’ve used it in both. Never had any problems.
