    You using pure nitroglycerin? That's extremely fast for a 162gr from a 16" 7mm08.

    I loaded a mates 18" 708 doing 2660 with 162eldx. Spicy would be the term I would use

    @GWH your comment makes me want to reevaluate my load but I've not been aware of any serious pressure signs... What would you expect to be a max velocity load, using CFE223?
