[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2401557, member: 75451"] When I was literally “stuffing” 96.5 grains of RL 19, under a 270 Barnes TSX in my .375 AI....it was quite compressed! If you seated the bullet too fast.....you would “bulge” the case! I think that may have reached the pinnacle of a compressed load! 😁 Though, that doesn’t answer your question! I’m not certain if there is a hard definition! My personal definition would be, “once the bullet base contacts the powder...you have achieved compression”! “Degrees of Compression”, will be another chapter in my book! 😁 memtb [/QUOTE]
