7mm PRC & N570

A lot of folks would be surprised to see the actual pressures they are hitting. I think a good chunk of handloaders are exceeding Saami without realizing it. Others (me included) realize it and monitor for signs that it is getting too high. Stiff bolt lift, blown primers, etc.

Yep. I have been doing the "monitoring". There is no load that I run where I am getting any "signs". my RL26 load: 168 LRX, 3.20 COAL, 67.5 g RL26. 22' Barrel. GRT says pressure is 69074 and SAMMI max is 63817. I have heard that GRT has a "fudge factor" so wondering what QL would tell me. I likely need to do some "hot load" testing to see if the California A-Zone temps (100?) are going to affect my loads. Guess a set of "hot pockets" will be used to get a similar temp.
