      About 330-340 and climbing. I did 315 after all my sets, and it went up with ease.

      I don't max out period, that's why I have to estimate it. I like to do 3 rep maxes, but I still do them after my other sets. So I did 275 for 8, 285 for 5, 295 for 4, and 315 for 1. I could have done 275 for 10, and the others for another rep or 2 also............that was without a spotter until 295 and 315. But the 315 felt pretty light, so I figure I can do about 335.

      585lbs on the BP plates loaded machine, 2 years ago, did it for a rep.
      on that bench: https://www.atlantis-fit.com/images/p.../ima_p_441.jpg

      Not even able to go near it now.
      I stopped heavy bench press because of a lack of real training partners!

      Talking

      ok, i weigh about 224-226 lbs, 511, and
      i did : 225 x 12
      315 x 8
      350 x 4
      375 x 2

      i don't max out coz it will fuck me head up, and starting thinking about maxing out all the time, but i'am guessing around 405-415 for one rep
