[QUOTE="itchytriggerfinger, post: 2095285, member: 24854"] Maybe I misunderstood Doom2 statement that the longer the barrel the lower the muzzle pressure as the bullet exits. If powder is still burning or if pressure is still rising until peak, how is this true? Also, cohunts statement about chopping off barrel increasing muzzle pressure seem contradictory to me also. I could see that being true only if you knew at exactly what point in the barrel the powder charge was completely consumed and stopped generating pressure, and that would have to happen well before the muzzle. Or am I missing something? I am not trying to be difficult, just trying to have a clear understanding of what’s being stated. [/QUOTE]
