[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1718102, member: 10755"] Compresses loads are not in any way dangerous, BUT you.must be aware that heavily compressed loads MAY push the bullet back out, causing a dangerous pressure excursion if not noticed. I use a couple of heavily compresses loads with RETUMBO & H50BMG. If I load them and leave them, the next day the bullets will have moved about .1" out of the case mouth..........enough to put them too close to the rifling. With these, I have to load long then seat them on the day of the comp prior to commencing the match. I do not recommend this type of loading for hunting rifles, unless they are a single shot type setup where mag length makes no difference. A bullet stuck in the rifling is no joy out in the field. Trust me. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
