    quickload is a guide and field testing by working up is a must.......its like a good book.... interesting to read but not real life

    Yes, understood. I suppose I was just interested in whether QL would indicate (given the circumstances that I described) whether pressures were being exceeded thereby confirming (perhaps!) my actual observations. Maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way round but it would be handy to know whether QL was likely to predict the outcomes that I have observed in practice.

    Quickload will give you pressure values you require and it’s up to you to decide to take heed.
    Flattened primers occur in factory bought ammo so not always a good indicator to back off,
    Check other signs too like hard extraction and ejector / bolt marks on base of case .
    It’s great to have as a guide and can be quite accurate if you put all the values in .
    Like Amir says 43 gns of abc powder 10 years ago might be 40 gns from today’s abc powder that’s why you should always check current data etc

    Yes, indeed. I agree with (and look out for) all you mention, and do use current data. I think I'll obtain a copy of QL and have a look to satisfy my inquiring mind!
