[QUOTE="tacomHQ, post: 2634875, member: 67159"] A column of blank diameter by blank length sits in front of the bullet. Let's say .308dia x 24" long. The moment the bullet seals on the rifling a confined column of air is present accelerating to 2600fps (example) at 50,000psi. While it can be argued it is not an instant 50,000 psi- there are not a lot of tapes or latex gloves that will withstand even a 1000psi. While some delay of the gasses will take place at some level... it would take some real testing in order to isolate the change. An air compressor set at 120psi on a small blow gun can pierce your skin. Tape or latex gloves are a near "zero" event. [/QUOTE]
