[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 1261630, member: 38130"] I think as mentioned earlier, without expensive specialized equipment we are all just guessing. But with that said starting near minimum and working up to pressure must still be done to be safe in my opinion. A good example I always think of is my 6.5 Sherman. Myself and a friend both have one and both used 270 Nosler brass. I spoke with Rich and started at his minimum loads and was blowing out primers!! Came to find out my lot of Nosler brass was 23 grains heavier than my friends lot. This combined with my barrel being a tighter bore resulted in me being way over pressure at starting loads. I know always start way low and weigh all my brass. Was a scary experience but a good learning experience at the same time. [/QUOTE]
