[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2755879, member: 74061"] If you have a stiff bolt lift you’ve already gone too far…however I have had some seriously FALSE pressure signs in my 28 Nosler when using over-priced and Uber-soft premium brass I bought from Nosler. Twice I went home and pulled bullets after having to knock the bolt open with a rubber hammer on loads that the chronograph showed 7mm Mag velocity and over 2 grains below published manual maximums. I don’t know if it was a fluke, both boxes of brass were the same lot number. I threw it all away. I treat book maximum charges as the gospel and back away when I see any ejector marks or smears on the case head. I typically find wider speed nodes below max anyway. [/QUOTE]
