The Target HP's shot very well in my S&W 625 revolver!

**Issue resolved, I loaded the bullets a bit too long, just needed to seat deeper as the bullet was hitting the lands/grooves before seating on case mouth.** Not an issue with the barrel, just the guy doing the reloads (me)

Hi Karl,
What OAL did you settle on? I'm at 1.250" and SWC's aren't feeding too well but accuracy is quite good.
Thanks
