No, not safely. That is why a max load is published as such, to inform you NOT to exceed it. As far as that is concerned when loading anything you need to decide what your objective is IE. higher velocity or accuracy because normally you cannot have both as accuracy usually suffers as a result of higher velocity. Load for accuracy unless you need the higher velocity such as for a hunting load which is one of the few reasons you would.can I safely go past published max load
If my pistol is designed to shoot +P can I safely go past published max load to try and achieve better velocity or accuracy?
Also, could I assume the same for a 5.56mm chambered AR15?
The safe way to do it is to use published data. The Alliant and Hodgdon web sites both have +P data, the Accurate web site has some. Another good reference for +P loads is the Speer manual.
I'm assuming pistol and not revolver ?If my pistol is designed to shoot +P can I safely go past published max load to try and achieve better velocity or accuracy?
