Clark,

Vernon Speer also didn't have any pressure data. He did buy a copper/lead crusher outfit, but apparently nobody at Speer could figure out how to use it and get consistent results (possibly because they used it in widely varying temperatures, not unknown in Lewiston, whether in winter or summer). So he used case-head expansion.

I have tested CHE in a piezo lab, and it did not work very consistently.
