[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 101841, member: 8"] You know when you are pouring powder from the pan into the funnel and sometimes it clogs in the funnel and doesn't drop into the case. That is bridgeing. What Kirby is talking about is when you have a very large cartridge case and a small idameter neck, the primer explosion will shove the power up into the neck and cause it to jam up and not be able to get out into the barrel. This causes an immediate pressure spike that is not good. This is more likely to happen with coarse stick powder than with ball powder which flows more smoothly. Clear as mud? [/QUOTE]
