But you don't have to run down other guns to promote your choice. How does shooting a heavy conical make you blow out unburnt powder. I just don't see the relationship. In fact when I shoot heavy conicals I use less than 80 grains of powder and I bet it gets used up pretty efficiently. Do you know something that the rest of the shooting world doesn't?
Actually it is just the opposite of what he said. The larger the bullet, the more powder will burn before leaving the barrel. The larger bullet creates nmore pressure, and hence longer time in the barrel to push out the heaiver projectile, and to create a higher pressure. That is why heavier bullets need lower charges to attain max velocity for the heavier projectile. Tom.
