    Breaking away from my normal heavier bullet syndrome, I been stuffing 5.5 Hercules Bullseye under these 185 XTP’s torched with WPP. O.A.L. Is 1.245”.

    Clock says 925 average fps with a SD of 7.

    See you on the range

    That's where I'm headed with 45acp as well. The 185gr gives it good velocity with CFE Pistol. A little over 1100 in 1911. I can't remember the grains exactly. It was over 8gr. I'd have to look it up in my notes to be sure.

    I’ve been using .357/.358 diameter with no noticeable issues. I have two handguns chambered in .38 Smith and Wesson. If I ever acquire a gun that won’t shoot the smaller bullets good enough I will certainly look at the .360 diameter.
    I have an old revolver around very early 1900 in 38 S&W. I had a few .360 caliber bullets for it, but haven't seen any for years. So was hoping you had a line on some.
