[QUOTE="Tiny Tim, post: 2997220, member: 87887"] That's been the theory for quite some time. A longer throat supposedly also allows for the flame "focal point" to remain in the neck of the case rather than in the throat. A sharper shoulder angle is reported to accomplish a similar effect on a shortish neck length cartridge such as the 243 (going to an AI version). Not certain any of it has been proven. Ballistics engineers are baffled by a great number of things. Because they happen so rapidly, most of these things are difficult to measure. [/QUOTE]
