Uniq @ 7.0gr= ~965fps

G-D @ 5.7gr= ~975fps

P-P @ 7.5gr= ~940fps

- Xtreme 158gr P-RNFP, all in S-L 357 cases, using CCI-500, & a light/moderate taper crimp at the cannelure (1.525"), shoot great in my 686+, 327TRR8 or 627PC w/5" bbls.

- I only used a small batch (100?) of the P-SWC initially & then experimented with the others, later settling on the RNFP for no overwhelming reason. I seated these a little longer at 1.550". These are the few powders I tried, with them, that I noted shot the best:

HP-38 @ 5.6gr= ~1000fps

B-E @ 6.0gr= ~1050fps

- Now you know everything I do.
