isn't 33 gr near our over the max
Its near I will tell you how I worked it up.

When I came up with the load there was no data for FTX bullets at all. I had data for 150gr jacketed bullets that max used 34.5gr Varget compressed and 170gr jacketed bullets that max used 33.0gr Varget. I started well below minimum for 170gr data worked the way up to max at 33.0gr. The bullet just sits down on the powder and I have no signs of over pressure. Its ridiculously accurate and Varget has lower velocities so max charge will wring out all I can for on target performance. This is a hunting load for me after all.

Without any further data this is as high as I am willing to go.
