[QUOTE="baydog, post: 1268086, member: 76072"] I have faith in any Nosler product and never sway off the path of what the nosler manuals have laid out for us because i know a lot of hard work and a lot time and testing goes into they're manuals. Was just a bit concern because of the load i had been loading in my son's .243 is not listed in the #8 edition nosler manual but i've never had any problems with the gun or seen any signs of high pressure when looking at a just fired case..Really was wandering if Nosler is suggesting to stop using the load or rescipe that they have published for the past however many years the #7 edtion has been out or if it would be ok to keep using it..Personally I haven't had any problem with it for the 5 or 6 years i've been using it so I'm probally gonna keep on using it but there has to be a reason they didn't list it in the #8 edition. I've been using the Nosler Reloading manuals since the green one, not near it to be able to tell ya the edition# but it is small comparded to the 7 and 8 edition. Glad they got bigger cause the older i get seems like the smaller my eyes get....So bigger is better... This will probally be the last year my son shoots the .243 anyways.
