[QUOTE="ak7an, post: 1382374, member: 103414"] Yup, that is what I was getting at. Your load manual says ##.# of XYZ super powder gives 3000 FPS in a 24 in barrel. You load yours to the same charge and go shoot, but it chrono's 3200 out of your rifle. Safe??? you bet it is, cuz the manual said it was. I am afraid a lot of load development goes that way.. The problem is the one that does with out a chrongraph has no clue he is over MAX pressure, but then maybe he does, cuz his primer told him so. He has that secret formula for reading primers for pressure spikes :rolleyes:.. I am exaggerating a bit in good fun.. but I still don't get the whole safe for one but not for another deal..:eek: Take care Ed [/QUOTE]
