Copyright law is a often a bit thorny, in a nutshell "factual" information cannot be copyrighted. The Sherman Bell articles would be copyrighted but the loading data could be argued to be "factual" information. I think the intent of the loading data was to get into the hands of the shooting public or why publish it. Safest route is to ask the folks at DGJ for permission and give them credit. Who knows it might sell a few back issues because some folks will want to read the accompanying articles that go with the load data.
