Greg--You need to read the article in question. It's not "Sherman's equipment", but rather belongs to ballistician Tom Armbrust, who assisted Bell in his various tests. The specific article in question, "Long Shells in Short Chambers", is from Double Gun Journal, Winter 2001. Thomas' report on the Eley tests of long shells in short vs long chambers can be found in "Gough Thomas' Gun Book", pp 260-262, "Danger in Case Length". Note that those tests were done by Eley--like Winchester, an ammunition maker.
