I have been using Speer's #13 Manual since I started reloading a few years ago. In two 7-08s I currently am running 140 gr Accubonds, with mag primers and 48.5-49.0 gr W-760. I am getting excellent velocity (near 3000 fps with 24" barrel). This is Speer's recommended max load for both their 130 gr and 145 gr bullets so I figured it should be ok for a 140 gr bullet - logical, at least to me. This load is 1-2 gr higher than most others I've seen for this weight bullet - so the question is - approximately what pressure range is this load generating, and should it be dropped down? Any help would be appreciated.
