[QUOTE="nheninge, post: 275773, member: 13085"] Compressed loads generally generate more velocity because there is more powder. Compression of the load while jamming 68 grains in a 65 grain case (random numbers) while seating your bullet probably generates some extra pressure and thus velocity. Compressed loads are always at the max, and may not be as accurate though! Simple analogy number 2: Holding a firecraker in your open left hand and place a second firecracker in tight fist. Light them and see which one hurts more! (pirated from Armageddon)(can't claim this one) Need some other opinions though OK Woods... Your turn! (Awesome info earlier though!) [/QUOTE]
