[QUOTE="woodsmanlw, post: 1710376, member: 87767"] 35gr Varget is my standard load for 55gr bullets but they are Nosler BT, so different bullet and different base but they should be comparable as the weight is by far the largest variable, followed by ogive shape, which affects distance to lands. The thing is, even if your rifle failed from stress fractures would a standard load do that kind of damage? Interesting possibility. I'm still leaning toward too little powder and detonation. You have an interesting situation that I wish you didn't have to arrive at it in such a dangerous and expensive fashion. [/QUOTE]
