The .38 Mid-Range WC usually clocks at from 700-750 fps. There was once a full power WC at a nominal 850 FPS, probably from a six-inch bbl.

I think Buffalo Bore may make it now.

Maj. George Nonte said it was a good defense round. Prob. is, but if I shot a man or a big rabid raccoon, I think I'd want ample expansion with good penetration. Placement, as ever, is vital.
