[QUOTE="Gusto, post: 1288092, member: 52730"] FearNoWind thanks for your reply. I am not familiar with the term "CBOL", but the COAL (Cartridge over all length)is what I inserted in their box they call "Cartridge Length". I am positive of my COAL measure ment, from bolt face to bullet againt lands is 3.445" - .050" (Barnes recommendation) = 3.395". I did plug in the Barnes COAL & it gave me a worse situation according to QL, Vel @ 2912 and psi increased to 79,156 an additional or a now total over psi of 21,141 psi. At 61.5 grs my case is 10% "overfilled, but I watched a QL video that stated powder up to 10% could be compressed. At 59.5 grs QL says its a 106.6% fill. Actually the load I settled on was 60 grs with a SD of 3, & a compression factor of 107.5 & vel of 2657 fps. What I am confused with is why my vel are normal if the psi is so very high. Why with the psi QL says I am getting why am I not getting closer to their predicted vel? I have seen so many suggested loads with RL #15in the 59-60 gr range why are not these people have psi problems? I remain confused! [/QUOTE]
