[QUOTE="coyotezapper, post: 422471, member: 20438"] Let me clarify a point about pressure. When it comes to OAL I never jam bullets in my hunting rifles. I load to fit magazine and tweak load from there. I have never had a problem getting a bullet to shoot well doing this. The Quickload data is interesting but it is just a computer prediction. As with different barrels sometimes it is close with a specific powder and sometimes it is not. I have found Quickloads accuracy to be about 80% which is pretty good but I don't use it anymore. I first purchased it about 2001 but updates were always slow with new powder. I have had Berger send me load data worked up with Quickload and it is very conservative. I have had no problems going higher in most cases. With warmer loads I will verify pressures with Oehler 43 just to be safe. [/QUOTE]
