[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 457868, member: 10178"] To answer your question, yes it is ok to go over the COAL listed in manuals. Those are only guide lines that will work through most any action. If you are loading for a hunting rifle I would not load closer than 10 thousands to the lands. I have stuck a bullet in the bore unloading a round that was loaded close to the lands and did not have a cleaning rod and it ruined a days hunt. To find your best accuracy start at 10 thousands off and seat 5 rounds at 10 thousands deeper until you get 40 thousands off the lands. Repeat your best grouping depth to verify and then seat 5 rounds 5 thousands longer and shorter to see if it makes things better. [/QUOTE]
