[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 73552, member: 2852"] [b]Re: Is Velocity \'always\' a good indication of pressure?[/b] One other thing to consider which may seem too easy is the method in which you got your velo in the first place--the chronograph itself! I have seen <font color="blue"> HUGE </font> variations in chrono readings throughout the last several years. One chrono might read a bullet at 2800 and another chrono lined up directly behind the first chrono reads the exact same bullet at 2900!
