That sounds right to me. If you are going to a heavier bullet then you would back off the powder charge.
The heavier the bullet the less powder charge you use.
We had a guy in our reloading group that always had to load everything to the max or beyond. This was pistols, rifles, shotguns etc. He always complained his guns were not as accurate as ours, but would never listen to us or the books. One day he split the cylinder on his S&W .45 revolver in 3 parts, he just got a couple of minor cut to the hand. He stopped then, and his shooting got better. To the day that I last saw him he never admitted it was his fault, it was always that "crappy S&W gun.
True story, believe it or not.
I see I still haven't made my point about theorizing about what's going on as opposed to real loading.
I certainly get your point - and all the other re-loaders who've told me to follow the book. You sit down at a loading bench and follow rules. That's how you think. I sit down at a bowl of raisin bran and follow concepts. That's how I think. (When I was young and brilliant I sat under an apple tree and a branch fell on my head.)
