I've also read reports from shooters that saw 100-150fps difference when owning both chamberings.

If you're actually getting significantly higher velocities than those easily calculated via Mule Deer's 4-1 ratio rule of thumb, you can be sure that you're also getting that performance bump through significantly higher operating pressures.
