[QUOTE="Turpentine21, post: 2710932, member: 124909"] Depends. I can run loads for my smaller chambered Grendel in either. But the Loads developed for the larger chamber won’t even fit in the smaller due to headspace. Just like a factory load, we can load to a minimum set of specs that will work in most any rifle. It may not be the absolute most accurate but it will work.. But they have to be loaded to below minimum headspace requirements and i wouldn’t want to make an all around load too hot. I run 5.56 in any number 4-5 different rifles. But I know which one requires the smallest headspace number and I stay below that. These certainly aren’t max loads. You can test and find loads that will be accurate enough in several rifles if you do so wisely. You also need to know which rifle has the shortest distance to the lands. If I am after extreme accuracy, I’m going to brew up a load for that individual rifle. But if I just want a plinking or short distance hunting load that will give more than satisfactory results I can load a one size fits all that will be perfectly safe. [/QUOTE]
