[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 1848780, member: 796"] In loading some WSM for a relative, I finally read the fine print about the WSM's extra performance: they are loaded hotter than the standard caliber they use for comparison, on the theory that all WSM guns are new and strong.. If I take my .270 WIN and load it with 4831 like we did 30 years ago (scoop the case full and scrunch a 130gr Nosler Partition down compressing the powder) I get speeds comparable to WSM---and very short case life. One of the boxes of WSM once-fired factory brass I was given to reload were ALL ruined by the factory overload, and went straight to the recycle bin. [/QUOTE]
