[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2332379, member: 68015"] The first thing I notice is you are using book data for a Berger bullet with a Sierra. Then I see that you are 200 fps over the max load published and we both know that pressure equates to speed. You continued to fire hotter rounds knowing there was pressure. Neither the rifle nor components were the same that VV tested. What is the difference in water capacity of VV brass as compared to yours? I tested a rifle a few years ago and found by the time I saw pressure signs I was at 74,000 PSI. I recommend backing way off and starting over. Im sure there is a node at a lower safer speed/pressure. IMO [/QUOTE]
