once again, thank you Mr. Sheep.
No I am not looking to push the envelope, I just want to make sure the load I got from Lee's Modern reloading I used a XTP-Mag instead of the Freedom Arms bullet in 240 grain, I am 1 grain shy of the max with 37.2 grains W296 under that XTP-Mag, and because It a ruger Alaskan with a six shot cylinder and not a Freedom Arms 5 shot cylinder, I want to make sure that the ruger will handle that pressure and not split the cylinder or something worse.
Also the other reason is if you look at the max load for H110 and W296 the W296 has a higher pressure then the H110.
I know that H110/W296 are the same powder but why the diffrent pressure rating ?
