[QUOTE="Darkker, post: 1248355, member: 81406"] I didn't use LC brass because of any "magical" properties, simply have one metric ****-Ton of it. We've actually done a fair amount of work testing the Creed with a Pressure Trace system. Believe me, I'm no Hornady Fan-boy; quite the opposite actually. But will give credit where it's due. The "weak" Hornady brass everyone whines about, isn't weak; they're idiots who think "signs" are accurate for judging pressure and a chrono means nothing. "Signs" in the Creed show up in the neighborhood of 75,000psi, which fits pretty nicely with Hornady's typical 125% of SAAMI brass construction. Don't look at how well each trace lines up, that's load work. Look at the shapes of the curves and the average pressures and velocities. Supr is some cool stuff, when not pushed on pressure, pushing peaks there burning curve up like 4350.
