[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1382396, member: 101859"] Ed, Bore dimensions. Bore diameter, groove diameter, land width and shape, lead angle, ext. Pressure peaks early on in the bullets travel, engraving force of the bullet coupled with bore dimensions can play a large role in how quick and high that peak happens. Some barrels will show pressure signs at lower velocities than others because of this. Its peak pressure that shows these signs. If you can keep the peak pressure down you can add powder and increase the total pressure across the whole curve which will increase velocity. [/QUOTE]
