slim' if the 120 TTSX blew up on your doe in 2012, why are you back again pimping the same load?
Edit: if pressure does not equal velocity, what pushes the bullet through the barrel, CFE 'pixie dust?
I get your drift, but it is quite possible for two loads producing the same velocity to have different peak pressures. Similarly it is quite possible for two loads having the same peak pressure to produce different velocities.
mathman, that was not directed to you.
'slim, by default this is about bullets as one component of the subject.
You stated you may be a little over pressure at ~3350, I am guilty of pushing 61-63K psi close to 68K psi, I don't think I have hit over 70K but I damn sure have no intention of pushing it into the mid-80's.
A running start increases velocity, a slicker bullet increases velocity with more powder, higher peak pressure under a longer curve increases velocity; and, higher peak pressure can increase velocity.
I think all who have commented on the velocity you are achieving now and in the past, are showing concern, take it for what it's worth.
