[QUOTE="WoodTRD, post: 2541302, member: 121978"] This thread is really old, but the "official" pressure limit for .458 socom is 35k psi, mostly due to how much material has to be hogged out of the bolt to fit the .308 sized case head, and still maintain the same approximate bolt lug stress as 5.56. No way I'd run anything near 65k psi in front of that thin bolt face. [/QUOTE]
