This is what Pedersoli told me about the pressure/regulating load for my 9.3X74R:
Dear Mr. Helm, Thank you for your inquiry. Please email your address to send you the care and loading instructions, these last however recommend only the use of commercial factory made ammunition, like those we load to regulate the barrels to group at 50 meters: RWS Mantel softpoint round nose 285 grs.. It is a commercial 9,3x74R caliber, which develops a pressure of 3000 bars about 45.000 psi. Here some features of the cartridge: muzzle velocity 2280 feet/sec Energy 3290 feet/sec at 100 meters: velocity 2010 feet/sec Energy: 2555 feet/sec.
