I will only add use just one brand of brass at a time, and if or when you change brands of brass reduce your load 10% and work back up watching for any signs of high pressure.
That's what I'm following. I am going to be working with two loads to start with. In PMC brass, 21.5gr of 4895 and in Remington brass, 6gr of Trail Boss (for the indoor 25 yard range). Both loads will use 55gr Hornady fmjbt with cannelure and Sellier and Bellot primers.
