[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1992876, member: 101791"] I have generally found that reloading manuals are on the low side of what the cartridge or rifle will do. So people seen to want to play around and it appears it doesn't brother them that primers are coming out of it's pocket when the round it fired. There only been once i used the manufacture load chart, and when straight to he top powder load using their bullet. I blew a primer out of the case. I only fired one round and that was it for the bullet. I still have the box of bullets and the reloading data in the box. That was in about 1975. I started hand loading in 1962 at age 14 with a 300 H & H Mag in Rem. 721. I did a couple of other times with temperature with IMR 4350 powder. Gave away about 16 pounds of IMR 4350 and 4831. Never use that powder again and that was in about year 2000. I do load beyond what the manual shows, but blow primers out the their pocket no. Chronographs is a must, and without it you know nothing.
