[QUOTE="Silver_Is_Money, post: 3086498, member: 129590"] Years ago I went as high as 73 grains with WC 872. Good velocity, and no signs of pressure excursion, but lousy accuracy, and highly compressed. My best accuracy load for 140 grain bullets was 68 grains of IMR-5010, but it was a lengthy process in which I had to vibrate and tap it into the cases while dribbling it in, and it was very highly compressed. A lot of crunching went on during the seating of the Hornday 140 grain SP for that one. [/QUOTE]
