[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 416668, member: 2011"] I'd say that Kirby would say something like, "Where the max load is is between 90 and 150 grains, the 2 grain below max seems to work well." :) In my 270 AM the top load that is backed off 2 grains is when after 2 shots the primer pocket is shot.:rolleyes: With the finally settled on load case life is maybe 4-6 shots. I don't think one would want to do that w/a rifle such as a 308. It just doesn't make sense. You may want to try using an equivalent of 2 grains in percentages. Here's what happens when you do what I do. (I'm sorry to say I did it but the economy needed the boost:)) It's even more full now!
