That’s a lot faster than the factory ones you tested before. Those look pretty good.

What is the recoiled like with the GT bullets.
Yes. It is only two bullets fired into an old gel block. However I'm fairly confident I'm on the right track with this bullet.
I also tried the 145gr LRN HP (actual weight seems to run closer to 150gr) in the gel. With the same charge of Unique I'm getting 850 fps but penetration was short, coming in at about 11 inches.

I was thinking it would be a little stout. I was surprised the other day shooting a few +p loads I had been carrying for too long. I had gotten spoiled by my 3.0-3.5 BE under 158 LSWC I had been shooting in my 60. They were not bad just a reminder that if for no other reason I need to rotate my carry ammo far more often.
Any issues loading the GT bullet? I noticed that sometimes soft hollow points will deform when seating.
We could isolate Russia totally from the world and maybe they could apply for membership after 2000 years.
I think the low velocity of the LHP load is due to your LCR being 357 magnum. It usually runs around 800 out of 2 inch bbls. but a 25 fps drop or a little more is common shooting 38s in 357 length chambers in my experience. Even my 3 inch 357s tend to shoot this load just a hair over 800 fps which is why I don't carry it in those guns. By comparison my 3 inch 38s do closer to 850 with the LHP load
