[QUOTE="vooduchikn, post: 2026360, member: 24535"] Thanks, and that's what I intend to do. Funny how so many people want to go over the max because they believe FPS equals accuracy. I saw a guy at the range once who was shooting 270 and his spread was about 4-5". He seemed very perplexed given it was a relatively new rifle and asked us for a recommendation. I recommended that he clean his bore real good and my buddy then offered up his some medium-high reloads. His rifle then shot sub MOA at 100 yards. Guy said he must've had some bad powder....:anyone: We looked at his load data when we got home and the guy was over max recommended load, but the cases that I saw didn't any pressure signs that we noted while we where there. He also had never chrono'ed the loads, so he really had ZERO idea what he was shooting. I think the guy got lucky that he didn't damage his rifle. [/QUOTE]
