Yes sir. I am doing just that right now with a new load. I am trying to make a 60gr VMAX perform in my 22-250 with a 1:14 TR. I have reached the max load and have no signs of it being too hot. I am now going to go up .5gr at a time till I see pressure signs then back off a tad. I like where I am at now but I enjoy learning things the hard way and if I dont try, I will never know if more is better or not. I am only out to 100yds so far and have used 60 rounds to get there. My goal is 400yds. I can already do that with a 55gr. Nosler BT but when the wind picks up, it blows that little pill all over the place. I hope that I get lucky and can shoot the 60gr. @ 400yds and keep my group tight without the bullet canting or tumbling. We will see.
