reloading for antique revolver

[jbunny]

this is a good read on pressure curve that i have been experimenting with loading round ball with unique powder.
this i googleed AI on pressure curve between 240 grain bullet and 121 grain round ball.. the very bottom shows the
curve. big differance. with the round ball, i get incomplete burn. the smokeed cases and lack of brass expansion
confirm this. i will post some velocitys after my next range trip.

jbunny: Highly interesting and informative data. Especially for those of us who are constantly experimenting with new loads. Looking forward to more of your observations. Thanks for sharing.

I was a bit excited to hear AI could predict pressure data - everyone with a smartphone would have a free version of Quickload.

It's telling us a 240gr projectile will create more pressure than a 121gr projectile using the same powder charge, but no actual pressure data. It's correct but who doesn't know this? Might be useful for a non-reloader but a person who hasn't grasped this shouldn't even be assembling loads yet.
