[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 698252, member: 25383"] pushing a bullet down the barrel is nothing but pneumatics. You have a given pressure that will decrease as the volume of the cylinder increases. Of course the powder charge is still buring to create more gas pressure as the bullet is moving to make up for the loss. The pressure contacts the base of the bullet creating the piston in a pneumatic cylinder. With more square inches of area, you end up with more pounds per square inch of area at the base of the bullet. (becomes a piston on ignition) That's why it's easier assuming they are of similar weights and shape. A very good example of this is to compair a generic 30-06 with a .338-06 gary [/QUOTE]
