[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 2376696, member: 13833"] In this case, the rum should be faster, even though it isnt as efficient as some others. The most likely culprit, In my opinion, is the free bore being waaaay short! The 245 is a loooong bullet and if there is not enough FB, your bullet is taking up a lot of case capacity! This essentially reduces USEABLE capacity which in reality is the volume left behind the bullet when its touching the lands. A too tight throat diameter can cause early pressure as well as a lot of other things, but thats not likely in this case. The coal makes it sound like a VERY short FB which is like cutting capacity a few grains. But what do I know. Im trying to defend the rum and still get reamed by the EXPERTS!😁 You guys need to cheer up. Life is good! [/QUOTE]
