[QUOTE="Rooks, post: 1907376, member: 113765"] Once fired brass has always boosted my velocity in multiple rifles by just enough to make a difference. Velocity plateaus in virgin brass for me are usually recreated with .5 to 1 grain less powder in fired brass. Monitoring changes in pressure through reading velocity will help maintain velocity when changing any number of variables. Different lots of brass, lots of powder, ambient temperature, barrel fouling condition, throat erosion, all contribute to changes in pressure/velocity. I find that my rifles shoot best when fed a specific happy meal/meals... [/QUOTE]
