    Maximum Pressure in .223 Model 12 F/TR


    I have a Model 12 F/TR. Does anyone know the maximum pressure for the precision action? I am starting to reload (even though I swore I wouldn't) and sure don't want to exceed what Savage says. Any help will be appreciated.

    I wouldn't exceed the SAAMI max pressure for the round. Which, unless you have the proper equipment for, you'll never be able to measure.

    Just don't exceed the reloading manuals max powder weight for the bullet you are using.

    No manufacturer is going to recommend exceeding SAAMI specs.
