[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2832419, member: 118038"] Hey guys, If you have less x sectional area across the whole length of the bullet that contacts the lands, and then the barrel rifling, isn't as simple as the frictional pressure normally lost and converted to heat with normal bullets is just less, so if you had even equal initial pressure, and less friction, velocity would end up being more because friction is less? If indeed you can even experience lower initial pressures, and then you have less friction, then its a no brainer. You should get higher velocity from a hammer of the same weight if it has less cross section and or less cross section down the whole length of the bullet contacting the rifling. [/QUOTE]
