I did see this site last night and played around with it for a bit. I would trust these numbers but the only problem I have is they seem low on velocity and pressure. Like example.... their 460 rowland numbers are just a tad higher then buffalo bore or underwood 45 super. Hodgdon is advertising 460 rowland 1400 fps with 185 grain bullet for a minimum load and Underwood is 1300 fps and buffalo bore is 1350 fps with 185 grain bullet for their 45 super ammo. Now is the factory ammo being embellished or is hodgdon not loading to full potential?
I doubt Underwood and buffalo bore are embellishing because there is documented videos on YouTube where people are getting a average velocity that is very close to advertised velocity. Now Hodgdon 45 super isn't even as hot as say factory 45 acp +p. This is what is confusing me.
