[QUOTE="Mr. Magoo, post: 2777528, member: 124360"] I agree with that..much clearer and shorter than the way I put it. I was mostly trying to illustrate that the 'velocity increase' method of "pressure detection" is not entirely accurate (and think I failed to, even with all those words haha🤣) Edit- After thinking about it some more, I need to add another exception to the above velocity advice for the newbies- and that is: velocities may be different than top book velocities if you have bullets with less engraving pressure (Absolute Hammers come to mind), or barrels lengths that vary significantly from the barrel used in the published data. Even a gas piston operated rifle may differ in velocity even if barrel length is the same (it depends on the timing) So still another reason not to put so much stock in velocity. [/QUOTE]
