[QUOTE="Tidus56, post: 2308980, member: 104495"] It has to do with the pressure curve, now that the powder charge isn’t being used to expand the brass to the chamber the pressure curve changes and builds pressure faster. This is at least my understanding. This is most common a problem with faster burning powder is my understanding. So Velocity will increase and pressure will increase typically not very much but if you were already close to pressure you’ll see it. There are 5+ threads on snipershide of anecdotal info showing similar experiences. Take it for what it’s worth. From my perspective just trying to help the OP. Likely barrel speed up played a larger role than anything, but there is a difference in 1 time fired brass and virgin. I won’t reply back as I have given my 2 cents and I was only hoping to help the OP. [/QUOTE]
