65,000 PSI translates to about 54,700 CUP, which is right at the old 55,000 CUP spec for the 300 Wby. Pretty much on par.

That was kind've my point smile A lot of folks aren't aware non-belted, non-magnum cartridges like the 270, or 6m Rem, etc, run at pressures equal to the Weatherbys.

Are you guys picking up MRP locally, or are you having to order it?

I ran MRP in the 80's in a few cartridges, but got tired of the spotty availability when Norma kept changing US distributors.

A dealer has been selling it at a local gunshow, though I don't
understand how he is selling it so cheaply. Blackhills Shooters
Supply is the only US supplier for Norma powder that I'm aware of.
