[QUOTE="cape cove, post: 1513266, member: 95503"] You should never just extrapolate a load and use it. Always start at the min load in the data book that you are using and work up always being viglant for pressure signs. In my experience there were times I could safely go past the max load of certain manuals and other times when pressure showed up before getting there. In your case I would start at 49grs and work up in inceriments of .5 gr till you begin to see pressure then stop and reduce slightly. I believe this is your problem. I have never loaded for the 270 wsm, but have for the 270 Win and 270 Wea mag. I believe you would be better served with a slower powder than IMR 4064 [/QUOTE]
