[QUOTE="Turpentine21, post: 2674713, member: 124909"] I’m watching my brass, primers, primer pockets, case stretch, bolt lift, very close. No cratering, no ejector swipe, no primer flattening, bolt lift is as light as it was at weaker charges. Pretty much one finger light. Particularly with the Winchester brass. Primer seating pressure in the fired Win cases feels the same as it did originally. I figure the federal cases weighing 15 grains more likely have a bit less capacity but even they look good. I’ve been a bit surprised. I figured it’s due to loading a bit longer than book OAL. I’ve gone up pretty much all I plan to other than maybe a .2-3 grains in the Winchester brass just to see what happens. I know I will not go higher with the Federal Brass and may drop down a couple of 10ths as the rifle seems to want to shoot accurately between 2850 and 2890. [/QUOTE]
