Quick question, Zak, when you say "Barrel length does not change the max load." is that within a certain parameter? I ask as I have been developing a load for a 33” 300WM. As I have no published data for this length I have been working up slowly and watching for pressure signs. Found an accurate load for 168SMK @ 3260fps with no pressure signs and well below max by book values (71.7 gn RL 22). I stalled there for a while but am in the process of working up again with 175 SMKs and RL 25. My method is to conduct a ladder test and thoroughly inspect cases for pressure signs. Curious about your input on barrel length vs max load.
Thanks, I always respect your opinion,
