[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2768160, member: 116181"] That's not necessarily excessive for [B]H4831[/B]. Hodgdon Online lists H4831; 140gn with a 49.5gn 2722 FPS max; Sierra 142 HPBT is 50.3gn 2714FPS max; 143gn ELD-X 50.0gn 2713 FPS max. I read that he was talking about [B]H4350[/B], not H4831. You're probably correct that that is beyond book max load data for 6.5-284 [B]Norma[/B], which is what publishers would work off of. Depending on a lot of variables, many guys choose to not stop where the book says - especially in something that was wildcatted for so long before it was standardized. It was out in the wild for over 30 years before Norma papered it, so there was a significant amount of experience loading it before anyone did anything as silly as take pressure measurements 🤣 [ATTACH type="full" alt="1678380662714.png"]445656[/ATTACH] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.accurateshooter.com/cartridge-guides/65x284/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
