[QUOTE="GetReel, post: 2691292, member: 92890"] Scenario: My brothers 6.5 PRC, 147ELD-M, IMR4955 We powder charge tested to find max charge weight at .02 off lands and yielded a good group for a quick hunt this fall. But velocities are lower than expected. We have case capacity left being the powder is slightly faster than maybe we should have. Anyway. If we seat the bullet deeper in the case, we should be able to run another pressure test and get less pressure by seating deeper and allow to be able to increase charge weight shouldn’t we? Normally I would just test and figure it out but it’s stupid cold right now (-40 wind chill) and so I’m just researching on my next steps. [/QUOTE]
