Vascar2....thanks for the welcome. Just for giggles, I shot the top A2015 loading (29.0gr) 5 times in one cartridge case. Sizing effort is good (Lee dies), virtually no case growth and primer pockets as tight as when I started. So, time and shooting will tell the tale....BTW..one trick that I have used when getting up near what appears to be a max charge is to let the case cool and then re-insert in the chamber and close the bolt. Ease of closing and bolt lift and extraction of the fired case suggests that the case has not expanded too much and proper obturation and release has occurred.
