[QUOTE="IdahoSpud2, post: 1993144, member: 115018"] Shooting 215 grain Berger’s with a charge of 77 g of H1000 in 300WM. Shoulder bumping Cartridges. Third firing, first two on a different rifle. The bolt “lift” didn’t seem hard. But most of the rounds were noticeably difficult to extract. The primers don’t look bad to me, but I think I see extractor marks on all of them. Is heavy bolt lift the same as extraction? Should I count this as max load and start backing down looking for a node? Velocities in the low 2900s. I was hoping to get a little higher. [/QUOTE]
