[QUOTE="orkan, post: 2589368, member: 25377"] Since this thread is still active, I thought some visual aids would be nice for some of you. Here's a 10x fired ADG brass, with 60gr of H1000 in it. The brass was NOT resized, so it's as big inside as it gets. The powder is up in the neck. [img]https://i.imgur.com/yRJZsAMh.jpg[/img] Now here is what it looks like if you seat a 156EOL to 2.950" for use in a short action. You can see the bearing surface of that bullet is way beneath the neck shoulder junction and nearly to the BODY shoulder junction... and the boat tail goes down in the body even further. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Gl53vULh.jpg[/img] This is not some mild compression folks. This is massively compressed, to the point that ogive damage will happen to the bullet just to get it in there even with the most manicured seating stem... and the bullet will creep out over time probably 20 thousandths or more. As I said above, this case has as much internal volume as possible, since it came straight out of the chamber and not through a sizing die... so in actual use, this load would be even worse than is depicted here. ----------- [URL='https://www.instagram.com/primalrights']Follow on Instagram[/URL] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/user/primalrights']Subscribe on YouTube[/URL] [URL='https://amzn.to/3txlBnp']Amazon Affiliate[/URL] [URL='http://www.primalrights.com'][IMG]http://primalrights.com/images/signatures/sig1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
