Actually, it's not pressure as much as total pressure area under the curve. A rifle of a given caliber can give considerably more velocity due to a combination of peak pressure and how long it's applied to the projectile.Somebody do Quickload and tell us what kind of pressure it would take.
Be sure to make a video! If it's really good (and you're pretty lucky in the blowup) it might pay some of the doctor bills...Quickload is showing about 66950 psi for a 110gr bullet with AA#9 out of a 6" barrel to achieve 2012 fps.
I think that you may be surprised when you find out what you're ACTUALLY working towards.I am working towards that goal using the Hornady 110 grain HP-XTP and AA#9 powder.
Please double check that. If your Speer #13 does state that, then you have a different printing of that manual than I do.model14 said:The reason I brought this up was that I noted in the Speer #13 manual that they listed VH110 with a 110 grain bullet doing over 2000 fps.
If the manufacture finds a defuglity [sic] in the pressure curve with a certain bullet weight...
