    if you are not pushing the envelope eg 2-3grns above book max or trying for that last fps you should be fine...... a nice accurate load that is a bit below max will be better to shoot and easier on components and shooter anyway..... firing off a load and seeing primers looking like pancakes is NOT a pleasant experience,far better to find happy medium and live longer.
