[QUOTE="Zen Archery, post: 2332447, member: 60545"] As one who tends runs my loads hot. I agree with you most reloading manuals are playing it safe. I've found Hornady to be the most conservative manual. I test a lot of wildcat calibers. Since they are wildcat you run them to find the actual max pressure despite what Quickload and other software suggests. In testing wildcats I've gone beyond flat primers, to blown primers, to cases with mass ejection bite marks. "I" would have no issues running your favored 25.6gr. A little half moon on a case and a flat primer is probably as hot as you want to go. You will sacrificing the life of your cases in the long run. But that is your decision (one I would make all day)!
