With some Wildcats, I'm in the same boat. I stopped and reduced a load in a particular .375 Wildcat by 3 grs. even though there were no pressure signs at all - none, using a Mark 10 Mauser. I did that as the velocities I was getting with .270gr. TSX's were REALLY scary for it's 78gr. gross case capacity. Even 3 gr. under that high load, the vel. is still pretty high.
