[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1504567, member: 4191"] MV us a great way to ID pressure. When your MV is matching velocity in the reloading manuals, then you're going to be in the ballpark of those listed pressures, as compensated for different barrel lengths and bullet construction. It's not perfect apples to apples comparison. Better than Quick Load predictions though. If you want maximum MV, you'll go by what your brass can withstand. The brass case head should always fail first as pressure progressively increases. Pressure can be observed and even measured on the case head and case web. Not all cases are created of equal case head strength. So if you desire maximum MV with [B]your[/B] cartridge cases, you'll have to monitor pressure off your fired casings. [/QUOTE]
