"Any idea what the ballistics are on the old HV stuff to compare?"

I checked Cartridges of the World by Frank Barnes. It showed some Winchester High Velocity loads; however, these show the standard 115 grain bullet. I believe this is a misprint. These loads are: 1575 fps & 633 ft-lbs, and 1640 fps & 690 ft-lbs.

I also found reloading data for the 80 grain bullet that shows the following: 1845 fps & 608 ft-lbs, and 2220 fps and 876 ft-lbs.

The test firearm was a Winchester 1892 with a 24" barrel.



ColbyBruce,

The velocity listed is for a rifle.
