[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2783292, member: 94491"] The pressure trace has been around for quite a while--- and it's affordable. Most people won't spend the time or money to test it though. I ran into the equipment when I was testing higher bc, heavier bullets with not normal powders in 6.8spc. ( a fellow forum member owned it) It won't matter to anyone on the internet if you "prove" your load is safe using this equipment--- naysayers still tell you if your muzzle velocity is faster than book loads you are unsafe. A few 6.8forums members came up with a "long load" 130grain using lvr powder. I get 2760fps from this load in a 20" barrel--- I know it's safe because it was tested--- yet people will tell you all day long you are over pressure. It was peace of mind for me to know it's safe in such an of the wall load. To me, if you are going to push the book data or do wildcats it would be good to have I'd love to see some of the hammer load data "proven" with the technology [/QUOTE]
