[QUOTE="MKWas, post: 2619226, member: 106445"] This is always the case. The mass of the powder is always expelled from the barrel, either as gas (burned powder) or as solids (partially burned or unburned powder). Energy from the powder burn is needed to expel the powder and must be considered for interior ballistics. Bottle shaped cartridges create turbulence inside the case and as it exits the case. This promotes better mixing of the hot gas & solids, so there is more efficient combustion. Energy is still used to expel the powder, but in this case the more efficient combustion of powder creates more energy from a given mass of powder. [/QUOTE]
