And i do get the point Ed. Norma uses 96 actions in their testing. I think that is all you really said. And it was done under lab conditions. And the pressure testing equipment there is usually used under 65000 lbs of pressure. Adam..I don't think he was telling anyone to use a 96 action instead of a "stronger" action. Just commenting on the strength of the action. Heck I saw a Krag that held together with a load that had to be over 65000 lbs...well over and it isn't known to be that strong either. This is a probably more common an occurance that we think. The mistake was 150 gr loads with 180 gr bullets. How many times do you think that has happened. Says a lot about the Swede action though..or any action that holds together with over loads such as this. I wouldn't want to do that even with the strongest action out there. Reminds me of the guy that came into the shop for some Red Dot powder so he could load up some more 3 inch 12 ga loads...And he really had loaded some with Red Dot..and shot 'em..in his 870. I,of course, did not sell him the Red Dot. Boy was he POd at me..
