[QUOTE="RegionRat, post: 1578220, member: 57231"] The amount of pressure-caused expansion is proportional to the section of the chamber walls. There is a dynamic change as the projectile travels away from the chamber since the pressure volume is the chamber plus the volume behind the bullet. The chamber neck has a layer of brass that is exposed to the powder and plasma, so it does see the pressure but there is a big difference in the heat at the surface when comparing the leade and the inside of the case neck.
