I wish I could my QLs died with my last hard drive.
On parameter that really helps get an accurate reading is the full to top water capacity for your case.

You edited the COL after the PM was sent, dang it. Doesn't help you stay under Pmax, tho.

Yeah, but it worked out good b/c, now, I have a curve depending on how the actual chamber seating depth works out.


As for Pressure...

CIP Pmax - is still pretty conservative - 7x57 Mauser range.

60K psi - M2 30-06 - is a more common field pressure - and the 3.1" COAL drops it under that.

...and still leaves a full case neck of (flat base) bullet seating.

"Warm" field load - w/ my favorite powder.

Many thanks.
