    As all chambers and barrels are different all traditional methods such as stiff bolt lift flattened primers etc. can be misleading at best dangerous at worst. Use a chronograph and note the fps velocity increase for each step in powder charge. You will note as you reach max there will be a diminishing increase in velocity. That is max do not continue. However in many cases your accuracy node will be below max. It really isn't about those last 50fps its about where it shoots the best.
    bully and Mathias like this.
