And oh... it's an interesting concept, but how does a .300 WSM get the same velocity from the same 180gr bullet in equal length barrels from 68grs powder when it takes 75grs in a .300 Win Mag?
An interesting study, but there's little doubt that modern powders, case geometry and loading to max psi in modern barrels are the main features.
Now... could it be that these same features contribute to adding 100 fps to modern rifles in 9.3 X 62? Naw, that's not possible. We must keep it in it's place... traditional ballistics is where it's at! After all, if we want more than traditional, then get a REAL modern rifle like a .375 RUM!!
