I was working off duty in a gun shop back in the mid '80's-'90's. We had a load of this ammo come in and I picked up three boxes of it along with some P.M.C. Starfire to carry in my off duty model 36. I went to the range the following week for our semi annual gualifications and was excited to show off the newest, baddest round. I was very disappointed as we couldn't hit anything with those rounds. They grouped well, but very low even at the seven yard line and hardly any recoil. Conversely, the Starfire ammo shot great and I continued to carry it or Nyclads off duty for the next several years.
I was poking around in the ammo cabinet downstairs a week or so ago and ran across a box and a half of the stuff still there. A pretty interesting round.
