I have been testing some loads for .243 with 95gr NBT and Varget. My best load was 3gr. over recommended max load. 35gr. is max load in the reloading manual and I am using 38gr.
I know reloading manuals are conservative because of liability issues. There are no signs of too much pressure that I can tell. The primers on factory loads are more flattened out than the ones with this heavy load. I haven't run this load over the chronograph yet but will next trip to the range.
Am I using a load that may eventually cause trouble? What do some of You reloading experts think about this?
