OK, still being something below any kind of knowledgeable about technicals... I guess this Q is directed at our resident gurus...
OK, I'm looking at two of my reloading manuals trying to decide which load to use for the 68gr hornady HPBT's... looking at max pressures and seein wide margins of difference from one load to another... I notice in some cases max load comes no where close to max pressure with one powder and that pressure is lower than the pressure of another powders "starting load."
Now, my question is: Is this more because of case capacity limitations with one powder than another> Or, is there a whole lot more to it than that?
(understanding the physical nature of ball powders vs extruded vs flake) i.e Varget is and extruded and BL-C(2) is a ball powder.
I think I said this correctly... if not, I guess I'll not hear the end of it... LOL
Thanks...
Tom
