Default So much for 60K

I was out to the range today, Looking for the start, of signs of hi pressure, in my swedish mauser 96. The first small sign of excessive pressure( primer just starting to flatten) with the 156gr bullet was at 2580 fps or about 69k psi pressure. This is 200 fps faster than factory loads. And the rifle did not blow up. Oh well it did pass the Swedish pressure test at 66K.
