I have read about high velocity rounds leaving a contrail type streak in the air and wondered what type of conditions were required for this phenomena? Muzzle velocity, humidity, temperate and lighting are important I'm sure. Has anyone seen this first hand? I am working up some 4000fps loads in my 6mm and remembered reading about his somewhere.

I recall now reading in a gun rag about 10 years ago an article on 4K+ velocites. They had pictures showing a contrail from muzzle to target, also there were orange/red streaks from the excessive velocity loads.
