DeCarbonized barrels

[Paul Harm]

Drew, thanks for the info. I don't feel Remington would have made decarbonized steel barrels if they weren't safe for at least 8 to 10,000psi and that's within what most hand loaders stick to. I stay at 7700 which is around black powder pressures.

I agree Paul. "For Nitro Powder", and we know 3 1/4 Dram/40 grains DuPont Bulk Smokeless with 1 1/8 oz. shot ran about 8500 psi, and that would be a light load for the era
