46.8 MAX with bullet loaded .243 depth (I doubt you would go that deep) and that is using the previous 55 grain Nosler. If you worked from 45 grains and seated longer, I doubt you would get any problems.

Thanks for the help chaps, i had seen the second load Alan has put up and was thinking i would use that as it worked for the sierra blitz kings. I just wasn't quite sure as these are not BT but HP, shouldn't make any difference though i would of thought.

A friend uses these for fox. Omg! Devastating, only down side is as he runs them at Max there is every chance he will need a rebarrel after a 1000 or so.
