[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 57576, member: 1521"] Matched in QuickLoad shows 67.5Kpsi(65K SAAMI Max). So it's a hot load. But given that it works for him, I'd say it's fine provided he doesn't get his ammo out in the sun. He'd have 3140fps with a 30" barrel. With a 26" barrel he could get 3100fps @ 57Kpsi(10K less) if he used Lapua 123gr and VVN560/IMR4350/Norma204 ~same load density and same seating. That way his barrel, and possibly his life, might last alot longer. [/QUOTE]
