    Yes I see that as well, which is why I wondered if someone has been there and chronogrpahed it before me. The pressures look a bit low
    for decent velocity so was hoping someone has a real world example, like Sneeze above, and thanks for his post.

    I am curious what a max 25 grain load of compressed 2208 would do behind a 55 grainer with a full length barrel. Judging by the pressures its only max because its a caseful of the stuff; the book quotes over 3000 fps , I wonder if its true.
    I will find out.
