[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 675400, member: 48043"] J E custom really has some valid points. I see a lot of exaggerated and darn near dangerous stuff as far as pet loads on the web. Those of us who've been lucky enough to play with strain guages have seen loads where the bolt is a little stiff, or there is a little scraping at the brass base show up as 75-80 K psi loads. If you are beating the case out of the rifle you've nearly failed the action and set the lugs into the recesses at least some. I'd bet the load on the right was actually closer to 100 K psi peak pressure. [/QUOTE]
