[QUOTE="Omega, post: 5892410, member: 20060"] Many factors to consider, that is why they have such a decent variance in the data. If you already started seeing pressure signs at 43g, you should have stopped and reassessed the load variables. Bullet and powder mfgs use modern test equipment with a certain receiver and barrel length, when we load for our rifles we have to take into account the age, throat, chamber measurements etc to make sure we stay on the safer side of things. I rarely, if ever, load max charges, most of my nodes are somewhere close the middle, and I don't worry about chasing a few extra FPS. Of course, I just hunt and don't compete so not trying to cloverleaf all my groups, 1" groups work well for me so if a middle of data node gives me that consistently, I stay there. [/QUOTE]
