I think we need a heck of a lot more detail before we say Cheddite cause pressure spikes. That's just MY opinion and I'm pretty new at this but I'll say we need more evidence.
What makes the test results of reloads sent for testing by a member of Trapshooters.com more suspect then reloads tested by the members of the PGCA?
