[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 386142, member: 22242"] Bravo 4 and Kevin Thomas, I agree with you maybe I just did not articulate properly. I am not saying one load fits all guns that is very much not true. What I was trying to say is if he was working up his load and had no pressure and stopped only because he had reached the max that was listed in the book then he probably had more room to go. "Book max" is max as far as pressure goes. but like kevin said some guns and lots of powder and primers give different results it is a matter of reaching that max pressure listed in your manual and having the experience and know how to recognize the signs that you are exceeding a safe pressure. But I think everyone here agrees that the new brass will not cause higher pressure. and if it does it is minute because the brass expands easily to fit the chamber anyway. [/QUOTE]
