[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1879548, member: 69478"] How long of a barrel do you have? Nosler shows 91.5gr as max with a 200gr going 3070FPS in a 24” barrel. If you’re getting 3140 with 89.0gr then I’d say that’s probably your max load. Sometimes you can get over book max and be okay, sometimes you can’t get to the book’s max. EDIT: I saw where Hodgdon data shows 95.5gr as max. Sierra shows 88.7gr as max with their 200gr bullets. If Nosler says 91.5 is max and Sierra shows 88.7 as max, then I’d be cautious on Hodgdon’s data. If I’m loading for a new to me cartridge that has load data, I check 3-4 sources and then average the max load shown. I’d rather be safe than sorry. [/QUOTE]
