Hi Lads.

Anyone using the above --------just want conformation im not over charging the cases ???

The above data is i believe correct, its just that from about 50gn the powder is "just about" level with the case neck, 52gn is only about 7mm down from the top of the case so i suppose the bullet when seated will compress the powder ? --------Does this sound right ?

At the moment ive only loaded 47gn, 47.5gn, 48gn, 48.5gn, 49gn, 49.5, 50gn, but haven’t fired any--------rifle is a brand new Tikka t3x lite.

46.9gn-52.1gn is their data for 58g v-max, hence the question of looking a bit too full ?
