[QUOTE="fairchaser, post: 5687195, member: 10373"] The pressure in a barrel on a regular center fire barrel is around 50-60 thousand psi. Because the brass case seals the chamber, that pressure goes out the muzzle and not back toward the breech. There’s very little to stop the pressure in a muzzleloader from coming back to the breech except the breech plug which is much more substantial in a smokeless muzzleloader. The difference is more about breech than the barrel. [/QUOTE]
