Today trying out a new load for my 375 Ruger Alaskan. Speer 285gr.Grand Slam. Varget-71.0 Case-Horn 1X fired Pri.F215 O.A.L 3.300 Vel-2600fps Air Temp.100deg. Everything looked great, accurate. Re-adjusted the scope for zero. About 6 or 7th round on final sight-in (3 shot groups then cool down) And Whooop's!!! Whoa.. Ruptured case at the web. Now this isn't a max load..... Is it?? Faulty case?? Opinions needed.. MopaneMike | ||

I'd call it a case issue. QL calls the pressure in the 57,000 range. Headspace? As usual just my $.02 Paul K | |||

No good answer for you, but I can share an alternative load. I have been shooting 300 grain Barnes TSX in front of 70 grains of RL15 and a F215M primer. Get one hole groups at 50 and 100 yards in my ugly Ruger Guide Gun. Velocity is right at 2400 fps. Mike | |||

Yep, moderate load. Check the headspace on the rifle? | |||
