Guys: The best measure of pressure is velocity. With a 225 grain Hornady Spire Point, 60.5 grains of Big Game give me 2575 fps. Sixty-one grains gives me 2619 fps both out of a 20 inch barrel. Sixty-one grains of Big Game gives me 2609 fps with a 210 TSX with an extreme spread of only five feet per second. Great load but I think I am going to stick with the 225 Hornady's. You really don't need tough guy bullets at this velocity. I am going to save the 210 TSXs for my .340 Weatherby.
