[QUOTE="orch, post: 1794970, member: 35688"] Most I can fit in Peterson (large primer version) for my 6.5 creed shooting 130 Berger hybrids is 46.5 grains rl26 through a drop tube and compressed pretty good with an OAL of 2.795” to fit mag length this is at the high end of pressure in my gun... in my 6mm creed shooting 115gr dtacs in Hornady brass I can get 47grs in on a compressed load... if I try and use Peterson brass it’s really compressed at 47grs and I start stretching primer pockets and have to back it down to 46.5gr to quit wrecking brass... So moral of story... with a drop tube, probably Hornady brass will get you over 47gr, definetly not Peterson brass, and I’m thinking much above 47gr you will start hitting high pressure... Hope that helps Orch [/QUOTE]
