[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2332408, member: 68875"] I agree with Seabeeken. You are not comparing apples to apples, just because bullet weight in the same. Also, every single one of your rounds are over VV recommend max with a different 90gr bullet. 1.4gr OVER listed max to start. Unfortunately, Sierra does not give bullet dimensions. Berger does. The 190 VLD has a bearing surface of .366". I bet the SMK has more. That would mean more contact, higher friction, higher resistance, higher pressure. Back down to middle of the road book loads and start again. Stop when you see pressure. Which ejector marks are showing you. [/QUOTE]
