I was able to get out and do a little chrono work yesterday...between the rains <sigh>
I got the idea of using this general data from posts by @Outpost75 and @Lost River Not their data but my extrapolation from various posts.
I wanted some practice ammo that would service potentially as a SD round and would play nicely with my HKS speedloaders for my LCR 327. I have several boxes of 85 gr XTPs in my component stock. So why not?![]()
IIRC the suggested threshold for expansion was mentioned to be 850 fps.
All loads shoot better than I do...
