With subs on 300blk you actually work down typically.

Otherwise you risk sticking a squib. That's why you almost never see "starting load" data, and the max that is shown is the max to stay subsonic.

Some powder manufacturers actually give you real starting and max loads, like VV.

You won't run into pressure issues until you are well, well past supersonic thresholds.
