[QUOTE="375fan, post: 628582, member: 24835"] I am in agreement with with JackinSD, the closer to the lands you seat a bullet the higher the pressure with a given powder charge. I have experimented with this working up loads. To prove this (you need a chronograph) using a given powder charge (same amount of powder thru whole process) load up 3 rds. at a oal of 2.25 then load 3 rds. at 2.30 continue this pattern till bullets are almost touching lands. You will find as the bullets get closer to the lands velocity will increase, which means your pressure is increasing. [/QUOTE]
