If you're shooting minor I suggest 95/100gr bullets and 9gr of HS6, it should be around 155pf, super soft and flat.
If you're going to shoot 124s, you'll make major with ~7.7gr, it'll shoot flatter ~8 and anything less won't work the Como very well.
Don't stress out about shooting major in the CM, it's built like a tank . With no holes in the barrel, 9 major is no problem.
Your recommended "major" 124 load (I used 8.1 gr.) worked very well, and after I got over the size of the 100 gr., the 9 gr. load was very accurate and flat. Sure appreciate the help.... Dan
