[QUOTE="Overkill338, post: 363558, member: 110473"] I can tell you, I took a Hornady 180gr Heavy Mag for a .300 Win Mag and pulled the bullet. The powder was so compressed I had to beat the sides of the brass with a piece of 50 BMG brass to break the powder free. If I remember correctly, the powder when all extracted was 86 grains. When fired the cases show no signs of pressure, and they do get the advertised 3100fps from a 24" barreled Ruger M77. This paticular rifle, stuck the bolt with 81gr of Retumbo behind a 200gr bullet. I also remember reading about someone with some Light Magnum ammo for a 7-08 or 308. They pulled the bullet and the powder began spilling out the top of the case. So I dont know how they do that voo doo that they do,...so well :D [/QUOTE]
