This probably isn't going to help much but it just felt different. Not really blasty but it seemed to have more slide velocity compared to similar bullet velocities from BE. .2 grains less and it felt like it was struggling to run the slide on my 17. It metered fine and burned clean. I only tested 500 rounds total so more experimenting might have produced different results.
As I said, it wasn't bad just different. If it was my only choice I would probably use it again.
I just loaded up 1500 rounds of 124 Xtremes with HP38. I'll burn up the last of the two pounds of that and try to find more BE in the meantime.

No problems. I've just found my target loads in both .38 and .45 to work so well with Bullseye that I haven't bothered changing. However, for service level loads, which is the majority of my shooting these days, I find BE-86 superior.
BE-86 is very similar to Power Pistol, both are derivatives of Bullseye, but not identical. BE-86 could be seen as Power Pistol with flash suppressants added. But again, not identical.
We may lose and we may win, but we will never be here again.......
