I remember that thread and the postings. I agreed with you then and now. I've talked to Mike more than a few times. Hes a good dude and great source of info. I've not played with 200 gr bullets in the 30-06 much but believe your statement is true of several powders - Re23, Re26, H1000 come to mind. I'm seating mine to 3.365 and am compressing the heck out of H4831, Re26 specifically. I also wish SAAMI would change the avg pressure to match the 270......

Thanks.
