Just having a look in the online reloading database and in .270 winchester
there are 4 loads for 130grn nosler ballistic tips using H4831
question is this...do we need to maybe go through and put them together in order of powder charge weight??? prune 3 of them off???should I have reported this in that report load box???
I havent looked too hard at other listings but this one jumped out at me.
I realize its a big task to edit the data base just wondering is all.

That particular database was written by yours truely. I wrote a script that populated it with various data from different (trusted) sources. I think we have a copy of the entire handloads.com data hehe. It would be a huge task for someone to try and hand edit this thing... at least initially. It would be better for me to write a script that looks for entries with duplicate data and prune it that way.

I'll put it on my todo list. If you have any particular examples that bug you, me or I think Joe has access to it as well (and if anyone else wants to mod it, I can look into setting that up).
