And how many of us have pressure testing data?? If you have a tight rifle with a minimum chamber, you get way over what is considered safe pressures before any visible signs show up. I'm just saying that constantly going a grain and a half higher than the published (meticulously measured with accurate equipment by professional ballisticians) maximum just shows ones ignorance and arrogance.

Working with wildcats and such is a different matter, this is standard handloading 101 here.
