[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1824095, member: 13632"] Personally I've seen the most extreme lug set back in smaller Cal's, the worst I've seen was a 6.5-338 Lapua which the owner never said he even had a heavy bolt on but clearly it had been pounded back but the lugs clearly were smooth and didn't show they typical galling or other effects of gross over pressure. I've built pretty extreme wildcats on the Lapua from 25 to 375 skipping the 358 though and BY far the smaller ones make me the most nervous, I won't build below 30 Cal on that case head size anymore in fact.
