Agree with all of this as I've also worn Skellerup Hikers for many years, and now the Talans, summer weight. The Hikers suited my feet other than the shape at the back - the excessive amount they...

I'm not recommending that shooters disregard actual signs of deformation in their fired cases in favour of theoretically calculated pressure. I am however interested in whether the calculated peak...

Yes, no flattening-off of velocity increases with incremental increases in charge weight. You know very well that in using the term "pressure signs" I am referring to dimensional changes in...

Although there is much to like about the 6.5x47, one aspect does concern me. Cases anecdotally do not show the same evidence of peak pressure that one might see in other designs - particularly large...

OK, noted thanks; the Drymax is the coolest of their fabrics and worth checking out in-store. paddygonebush: You'd trust the Ockers to know what to wear to keep cool, but where would we get to...

Pressure signs in cases develop in response to the peak pressure. This typically occurs in time at about one-third of the barrel time - the time between ignition and exit at the muzzle -...

Wingman, please tell me a bit about your reamer: your freebore length and neck diameter (clearance) choice and perhaps your thinking that led to these dimensions? I think I would be right in saying...

Recoil energy formulae typically attribute an average of 4700 ft/sec (or similar) departure speed to the mass of gas escaping behind the bullet treated as a point mass of the same weight as the...

As a user of rifles chambered in original .280 Ackley Improved, I haven't found the definitive or entirely trustworthy answer to this question. It could be that the cases are more similar in length...

QuickLOAD predicts a 3ft/sec change in MV for a 0.1gr change in case capacity in a 6.5x47 case, a lesser change in larger cases. On the other hand I have measured at times up to a 25ft/sec reduction...

Barrel length and ammo details please? If handloaded I can run the figures through QuickLOAD.
