[QUOTE="Sennaspeed, post: 702419, member: 33556"] QL gives you the SAAMI or CIP pressure standard for each cartridge which has one. One of the things I really like about QL though is that you can experiment with higher pressure loadings. For example, the .280 Remington has a SAAMI MAP of 60Kpsi but several other cartridges using the same case have a 65K MAP. No reason a guy can't run his .280 at 65K in a modern bolt action. The folks who publish the loading manuals however won't usually post loads higher than the SAAMI MAP. In my modern bolt actions I'll usually load all the cartridges in a case family (7x57 case, .30-06 case, magnum case, .308 case, etc.) to the highest SAAMI MAP within that particular family no matter what the SAAMI MAP is for each distinct cartridge. That's usually 65K. [/QUOTE]
