[QUOTE="Tripodmvr7, post: 2075304, member: 115545"] Every rifle is a unique platform. Treat it as such. Continous higher pressure on the locking lugs can lead to setback and cracking of the action. A very dangerous situation when shooting maxed out loads. A difference of 200fps will not be a problem if the rifle is accurate and you can dial using a ballistics app. Retained energy with a 200gr bullet out to a 1000 yards should not be problematic. Why then chase max loads? Pressure in the 50-55K psi range ensures proper ignition and good results on the target. Less recoil and longer barrel life. [/QUOTE]
