Gentlemen,

I have a load for my BSA .270 which shoots very well, but do you think it might be too hot?

130 grain Hornady Interlock
61 grains H4831sc compressed
3102 fps
This is in a 22 inch barrel.

Brass is necked PMC .30/06.

Book max is 60 grains. Quickload says that 3150 fps for 60 grains is near maximum in a 24 inch barrel. I am getting 3100 in a 22 inch barrel.

I have no high pressure signs on the brass that I recognise. Primers are flattish, for what that is worth. Bolt opens normally.
