[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 2429241, member: 33046"] The unknown pressure spike chart is when using equivalent charges of all the different propellants. The chart has been available for a long time and yes, they used a strain gauge on the barrel. I did not do the testing. The second chart tells the powder charge and bullet weight. That was also completed with a strain gauge on the barrel. I did not do the testing. The manufacturers are not interested in providing data that 99.9% of hunters will never need, use, or let alone understand. Western did strain gauge testing of the charges they list in their test barrel. They also tested rifles such as the Remington Ultimate Muzzleloader (RUM) for maximum charges using strain gauges. There's a lot of data and photos of those who decided to go well beyond what manufactures state is a maximum or just plain screwed up in some manner. [ATTACH type="full"]337628[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
