The actual pulse lasts less than one mS, eyes can't follow and non-
storage scopes won't display random one mS pulses that occur 
right at the leading edge of envelope rise.

If you used a FAST peak-storage wattmeter, you would have a 
clear and accurate indication of overshoot levels. Lacking that, you 
could use a triggered storage scope triggered off the source at 
some early stage, and store about a dozen shots of leading edges 
and find the worse of the batch.
