    Yes, no flattening-off of velocity increases with incremental increases in charge weight.

    You know very well that in using the term "pressure signs" I am referring to dimensional changes in the case and primer that are commonly used by shooters as an indication that peak pressures on firing have reached levels widely accepted as a limit for safe operation. Rather than being a contrarian are you instead prepared to provide the data where you saw velocity start to taper off so it can be considered as alternative method for load development for this cartridge ?
