[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2766186, member: 1521"] Alright, who proved it how? It could be very difficult to prove, as the testing would require fully stable brass and no load/component change (of any kind) during the entire test. It's the only way to isolate this to barrel change only. With any of your guns take a new/prepped case and fire it, reload, fire, reload, fire, all 3 shots across a chronograph. You will see MV go up with each shot, but leveling off (unless you excessively FL size). If you introduce 100 new cases to your gun, times 3 fire formings, that's 300 shots of unstable MVs, that trended upward, and that had nothing to do with the barrel. It was purely from the new brass -vs- brass that finally took it's set to your chamber. [/QUOTE]
