I have been reloading for several years now and have come to wonder why we don't think of things in a different fashion. When thinking about straight walled cartridges, wouldn't there be some advantage to calculating powder charges relative to how deep the bullet is inside the case? For instance if you take 9mm-: case .750", 125gr lrn .597", col I've been using 1.105", so, an overall calculation of 1.347" minus my col leaving .242" inside the case mouth. Wouldn't any 125gr projectile with its base seated to the same depth yield the same result in velocity? So instead of saying this particular shape bullet at this col works well at this certain powder charge and supplying data that way, wouldn't it be easier to calculate the base of the bullet inside the case mouth and realize that if it fits your guns chamber length wise any shape projectile of the same weight would work well at the same charge level? Thanks in advance guys for entertaining my kookiness
