Does anyone know if CB 7/8 wad produces more or less pressure than DR16 wad given everything else in the load is same? |

Two completely different wads.
Depending on the hull, the DR-16 will probably exhibit a bit more pressure as it has slightly larger obturating cup diameter.
How much more pressure with the DR-16? That would be a SWAG and something I would rather not guess at. |

Depends which hull and what's done to the CB wad before loading. |

Found some data with 7/8 oz and international powder but only with DR16 wad.
Did find some with win expert hull but that is a entirely different argument that I’m already aware of. I’m treating experts as poly or cheddite hull and rolling on. |
