    708, 2209, speer 130gr btsp

    Anyone have a recipe? Main thing in finding is at 2.8" I barely have any bullet in the case but if I sink them in further I'll be going up in pressure and my book is all at 2.8 coal.
    Cheers

    I think SAMMI max is 2.800", not that you can't go under this for OAL. 2.800 may even be jamming the lands so will up pressure regardless. Seating at a more practical length should not give you excessive pressure issues unless your putting in too much powder. Does 2.8" even fit your mag?
    A quick check has IMR4350 (similar burn rate to 2209) with 49.5g doing 2960 from Sierra app.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
