[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2519243, member: 1951"] In Quickload, there is a Shot Start Pressure variable which I thought was basically 3625psi and increase up to about 10800psi for hard jam. I find 10800psi seems too high for my rifles, but I don’t usually jam, except looking for max load to back off of…. So, I’m trying some mono’s. 6525psi is a pretty high start pressure. What is weird, is I just noticed start pressure default is like ~2200psi, but Barnes is 3626psi. Should I be starting at these default values? The reduced values make sense because bullets like hammers have the ridges to reduce engraving pressure, but I don’t really know how much…. What should I set Shot Start Pressure to for monos?
