While +P is a standard it only denotes additional pressure above the standard loading NOT how much pressure which is why I said earlier there is NO uniformity across the industry on what +P actually is and there is a lot of good testing evidence to that fact. Some +P is in fact not any faster / has more energy than standard loadings and some is quite a bit hotter.

For those ignorant of ammunition and how its loaded more pressure doesn't necessarily mean more oomph out the barrel .


True story
Nope. You are talking about +P+.

CUP pressure is on page 12.
Transducer pressure specs are on page 20.

ETA: Also, the box in the 2nd photo states that it is 15% higher than +P industry standard. That's stating clearly that there is an industry standard specification that is followed and that these rounds are above that.
