[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 2099869, member: 70559"] I have a real world question. First, I have not read a lot about testing. I like to shoot and don't know much beyond that. I remember P.O. Ackley working up a maximum load in a Weatherby Mark V. He put the same load in a Mouser and it blew up the rifle. So he tried the same load in the Weatherby again and again it was "fine". So he tried it again in a different Mouser and again it was destroyed. Would you safety guys say the load was unsafe in the Weatherby? Where did the 65,000 number come from? Was it established to be safe in a Mouser, thus being "safe" in all rifles? [/QUOTE]
