[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1518060, member: 85987"] That's a by product of the faster burning powders in the wsm. Run the same powder in both and you will get the same same result. I shot sporting clays extensively. When I started 17 grn of red dot with a AA wad and oz of 8 shot was the most common load. Take that same load and substitute 21 grns of green dot in a 30" tube you would feel half the recoil without a change in performance. All because the slower burning powder built pressure at a much slower rate. If you apply the same principals to a rifle cartridge and the results will be similar at the same speeds. The advantage is you may be able to build more speed and still not be over pressure if you can keep the pressure curve building in a longer tube. [/QUOTE]
