I know this is all speculation and we won't know until some actual pressure tests are performed. George

I am curious, since there are published lead loads with known pressures using the components you listed why would you like to substitute the Nice Shot in a Bismuth load for? What are you trying to achieve, lower pressures?

I have both Nice and Bismuth on hand and curiosity took hold of me, and pressure was a consideration especially if a 6 pt crimp was used. I would like to keep psi under 7000 and was looking at possible ways to achieve that using Bells data swapping out combos of shot and crimps.
