which is nice since many burn cleaner drop better than some older powders.
I don't think you will see a 42,000, 357 Magnum pressure listed any more....

Wasn't it 43,500psi or around 46k cup??
Whatever it is brutal.
Anyway, they made K frames which couldn't handle the pressure. Some folks like to shoot 357 mag out of Scandium snubs!
