[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 733131, member: 11717"] I appreciate your concern but I am VERY comfortable with this load in this rifle. Let's consider some facts about reloading. There are many factors that affect pressure and velocity, including brass, primers, chamber, bore spec, powder, bullets, etc. Certain combinations will give you higher velocity to pressure ratios. I.e., in my 25-06 I found about 50 fps difference in using WW brass vs Rem for equivalent pressure signs. Like a lot of other reloaders, I don't have a pressure gauge and I go by what I see and feel. I have seen some big differences in max loads and velocities in different reloading manuals for the very same cartridge, bullet and powder combinations. I have had several shooters in this forum message me for load details and I always encourage them to start low and work up carefully. I have shot many rounds of this load out of this rifle without what I consider to be excessive pressure signs. [/QUOTE]
