[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2875006, member: 63925"] Excellent!! ================================= Prob most least understood facet of reloading. Rifles are designed to specific cartridge SAAMI pressures. Is there a safety factor? Maybe? Probably? WTHK's? What is happening to the steel of the action with repeated over pressure loads? What is happening to bolt thrust? This is where I get heartburn the "assumption" rifles can exceed SAAMI cartridge pressures on routine basis. Until it doesn't. I read an article long time ago, not sure where but hope someone recalls, that discussed the steel action and bolt thrust pressurization effect. Anybody recall it? I can't find it. [/QUOTE]
