Good idea! See, when two great minds work together great plans come about.
I was joshin ya, of course. I mostly agree on the gunpowder gets all burnt up quicklike, but the gasses do expand for a while after. The big question is, for how long and at what pressures and gas speeds and for how far along the barrel.
Maybe the throat erosion of a well used rifle reveals the powder and gas burn??? Some worse than others. Seems like the barrels don't wear as much the further you get from the chamber, and it doesn't seem like the bullet speed changing would account for all the difference. Any thoughts?
