[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 2650579, member: 85874"] Ok good to know. We can help you. If you have a SAMMI chamber then it is not going to be longer than standard. I would imagine you are close to the lands at 2.986 COAL. I would load Three at 2.950, Three at 2.925 and three at 2.900 and see what happens they should get better or worse at you progress. After you get some fire formed brass and get your barrel broken in then you can start to find pressure. I have found that the ELD-Xs like some jump. Also remember that new brass will take a little more powder than fireformed brass so if you are on the ragged edge of pressure with new brass you will be over pressure when you go to load it again and you will be scratching your head. The new brass absorbs energy as it is expanding to fit your chamber is why will tolerate more powder. I am only talking about a grain or grain and a half. [/QUOTE]
