[QUOTE="PapaSmurff, post: 2868314, member: 118512"] I’m not afraid of compressed loads; the loads I’m shooting with 270 ELD’s and also with the 250 Bergers abs RL-26 are both compressed. The 250 Bergers are compressed enough that when I turn my micrometer seating die down .010” it only seats them about .007” because of the pressure. And I’m sure I could go up another grain or grain and a half more with each load safely if I wanted to. The accuracy at those velocities for each bullet that I talked about is really good right where it is however. And I suppose you could run 225’s with RL-26 just fine, I was just stating to be a where of a lot more compression needed to attain good working pressures so people would know that. Nothing wrong with compressed loads in my opinion but I generally as a rule of thumb prefer my loads 105% or less compressed if possible, just my personal preference. [/QUOTE]
