Powder compression

Most of my experiments are just curiosity's when I want something to do.

A lot of what goes with this compression thing is lost because I failed to keep it backed up and lost the stuff when the computer died.

Yes I did do some chronograph readings from zero compression to .600" to see if any gains in velocity stops. I did not see a negative below zero compression. What I did see was a slowdown in the amount of increase and then again a slight increase like a dip. I ran this with Goex, Goex express, swiss, Schuetzen, Diamond. And they all basically showed the same results. Swiss had good groups with minimal compression but again when the compression increased.
But what I was really after doing this and that was to see what the effect was for fouling. And yes I see a lot of unburned powder on top of the snow or ice when I shoot in the winter. More so with heavy compressed Goex.
