The data from these old manuals was produced without the use of any equipment to measure pressures.
This misconception has been pretty thoroughly disproved on several occasions. Here's a picture from Speer #8 showing their pressure equipment.



This picture, from Gun Digest 1973, page 25, shows why Speer's data is correlated so well to actually velocities, they used a real gun!
