When loading 180's in the .358 Win with RL-10 I worked up loads over the chrono with the old 99. A velocity of 2800 seemed ok but more powder drove the bullets even faster. I had no idea what the pressure was? There were no obvious excessive pressure signs.

It just seems that, in theory, 2800 fps is a lot out of the case.

RL-10 is excellent in the .358 and other rounds.
