[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1832839, member: 2736"] I wouldn't go that far because of different barrels, loads, bullets and cleaning regiments. But they should last longer than if pushed to 65,000 or 70,000 Psi like so many people do trying to make a cartridge do more than it was designed to do. Once I lowered my max pressure below 63,000 psi, I have yet to shoot a barrel out. And never had to set the shoulder back. So there is some benefit to running lower than Max pressures. Its like running an engine at full throttle all the time as compared to rarely, The engine will last a long time as apposed to a few hours. Just saying don't push the cartridge beyond it's ability.
