[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1692703, member: 109113"] I think you're right on the mark. There's pressure and there's relative pressure. A transducer is how you read the former, but due to their cost, those are not commonly used by the average shooter. Measuring relative pressure is about as close as most guys are likely to get. Since velocity is directly related to pressure, if one is getting the same velocity as the load that is said to generate "X" amount of pressure, then that is probably how much pressure he is getting with his load. If that isn't enough velocity, the best way to get more is to get a cartridge that has a larger capacity for powder, and a neck diameter that fits the same bullet. In short, GET A BIGGER HAMMER.
