[QUOTE="Jcann, post: 2851860, member: 33119"] Your primer looks just like mine when I load my 7wsm with 180's and I've shot it that way for two years now. I generally go by a stiff bolt lift and not primers when looking for pressure signs. I run my 180's anywhere from 2860 to 3010 fps without a stiff bolt lift but I do have flattened/cratered primers with Hodgons H1000 powder and CCI BR2 primers. One positive is it doesn't show pressure signs throughout the Oklahoma temperature swings. I'm not sure of RL17 but the H4350 is an extream powder that generally does well in temperature swings. I haven't had any problems finding pressure signs conducting an optimum charge weight (OCW) test while loading rounds in 0.30 grain differences. Some people load in 0.20 grains. [/QUOTE]
