mtnman,

No nerve hit. I just got long winded...I could have just answered the question and left it at that. Yes, Quickload says its hot. According to SAAMI its still under Max Avg Pressure for the .270Win which I consider safe to shoot in a .280Rem. Honestly, IF my loads run an average pressure under 65K psi, I don't even consider that running the ragged edge...BECAUSE I know that SAAMI and the industry have set the "Max Avg. Safe Pressure" well short of the ragged edge.

Bottom line, I don't advocate doing it the way I do it for anyone but me, or someone else that wants to do it my way. smile For them I'll provide my data freely and issue the standard caveat: These loads have proved safe thus far in my guns, YMMV, work up to these max loads.


War Damn Eagle!
