Good catch!!
I just pulled the #9 manual, and see that you're absolutely correct.
I probably wouldn't have caught that, as I generally look at the max loads in all my loading books, average them out, then start my load work-up's at 2 grains below the average max. That being said, there are some books that call for max loads that are way out of line with the others, so those loads are discounted.
Respects,
