[QUOTE="JeffVN, post: 1294859, member: 2261"] Theis - :) I tend to read more than I talk on the ELR forums, but every once in a while I make a comment. This particular issue is of particular interest to me, since I am developing a BMG boltface based 2 Mile Rig. I'm looking at case designs running (220-250 gr. H2O). Powders with the proper burn rates for these case designs are a key factor - assuming you can ignite them consistently (but not nearly as much fun to discuss as bullet designs). Looking at this from a slightly different perspective, I've wondered if different barrel materials will generate similar evolutionary leaps forward in cartridge designs and/or usages that today are simply uneconomic. All of this design and product innovation and development is happening as I type. Very exciting. Velocity / Speed. In the long run, simply going faster with current bullet designs probably isn't the best answer. Even so, it certainly provides a short term gain and potentially a competitive advantage. More speed + more efficient flying projectile designs are a wicked combination. Jeffvn [/QUOTE]
