WRMoore- I brought up the question of this round's instability in flight. You point out your results with a four-inch barrel, that stability was marginal. Agreed. Does it then follow that INSTABILITY in a SNUB is a given, or what percentage of shots are unstable from the short barrel? If the percentage is 70% or greater, then the 200 Super Police as a snub load might compare well if not better than the current snub loads.

Test run in gelatin might answer the question. Has anybody run such tests, and if so, what were the results as to crush cavity, stretch cavity, or any measure of stopping power generally accepted today?
