[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2842564, member: 109862"] I beleive you. We think alike. There’s folks that would condemn us both as madmen for being able to outperform what the Almighty Published Load Data says we can haha. Never mind that things like Hex boron nitride, progressive burn rate powders, and bullet geometry (including but not at all limited to hammers) do change the pressure curve. To say nothing of superior brass allowing for higher pressure before showing problems. I don’t dispute that some of my loads are exceeding 65kpsi…but the question of safety is not the same as the question of an arbitrary number. There are rifles and chamberings for which 65kpsi would be totally unsafe as well. You already know about my findings 120 Barnes tac tx at 4050 fps in a lowly 300 win mag. Hbn treated, Peterson brass, superformance, fed 215m 75 hammer hunter at 4170 in a .257 wby, hbn treated, Norma brass, rl17, non magnum primers Both from 24 inch barrels. [/QUOTE]
