Has anyone else tried 230 gr with cfe beyond the published 6.8 max charge? I’m interested in shooting pins and I think the extra velocity would be good to knock the pins off the table better.
Today I tried 7.1 and 7.3 cfe under 230 xtp’s and my chrono numbers got me 948fps and 972 fps average. The primers on the 7.3 load are flattened but I’ve seen worse, especially with W231.
The 6.8 load does give good accuracy though, the best of the day.
Anyone else try pushing cfe over max?
