[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2436139, member: 30902"] To simplify... . When you get to a certain volume of powder you start limiting the combustion rate especially with slower burning powders which is why we tend toward longer barrels with slower powders to get higher velocities. Not only is there a point of diminishing returns as your charge increases, it can actually get to a point where it works against you by suppressing the burn rate. [/QUOTE]
