[QUOTE="baydog, post: 1280460, member: 76072"] I'm pretty sure no one is gonna want to anwser this question so I'm just asking your opinions but if the manuals you've got faith in and have been using they're products for years with good results and they're load data gives good data tells you for examaple, max load for a 257 wby using a 115 gr bullet would be a max of 71.5 gr of H1000 would produce 3300 FPS but produces less, say around 300 FPS less when actually loaded and shot. I'm sure there's a lot of variables that could change things slightly but when I'm using the same barrel length and the same load the manual is and not getting the same results knowing they're aren't gonna be exact with difrrent barrel twist and all the other variables throwed in the circle....So the big question is without getting to crazly heavy handed with the powder, does anyone else step up your powder charge to get the FPS you're trying to get? I've never been able to get exact results for almost all guns I load for but seldom do I drift over the max load suggested but have done it without getting to heavy handed with the powder and always checking for pressure signs...I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one but as long as I'm not backing the primer out or swelling the case should be ok... So far away!:D [/QUOTE]
