Okay, you win.  :-)  (I'm feeling generous today)  I've always felt it 
was in terms of recoil.  A heavy load means it kicked hard, meaning 
either a heavier bullet or a regular bullet at lot higher velocity.

Don't know about tar and feathers, but Sister Nathanial sure had it in 
for me when I was in parochial school for a few years in Alabama.  My Dad
