FBI Load. What Am I Missing?
This may sound stupid and maybe I’m missing something very obvious. Every so often a thread pops up here with someone wanting to duplicate the old “FBI Load”. Seems one of the main problems is barrel leading. Here’s my question. With all the new bullets available either factory loaded or components that are designed for penetration and expansion at short barrel velocities, why would you just not go with one of the newer style jacketed bullets and no leading problems? Most of the test I’ve seen with Speer SB, Golden Saber, and others show equal or better performance than the LSWCHP. Please set me straight if I’m missing something. I love to learn and maybe I should start experimenting.
