  If you are using lighter than 150gr bullets use the pistol data.
  If you are going to use the heavy 180 and bigger tips, use the
  35 Remington starting {low end} rifle data and lower the charge by 10%.
  Most 35 remington rifle listed loads are fairly light as far as pressures. You have a little less case capacity in the Herrett, so the 10% reduction is needed.
