Shot earlier this morning 25 rounds of an ole reliable load I've developed years back with 158 gr cast SWC:
6.5 grs Unique (RCBS Little Dandy rotor #13)
Starline 357 Magnum brass cases
CCI 500 small pistol primers
T&B 158 gr Polymer coated 158 gr cast SWC
Platform - Ruger 4 5/8 inch Blackhawk
10 shot avg velocity 1,061 FPS
Comments: very accurate load, grouped tightly off rest. Also clean shooting with its Polymer coating. No undue "smoke" or blackened hands from all that usual lube (but only 25 shot). Plenty powerful for me...expect 1,125 FPS +/- in 6 inch revolvers...a 38-44 in 357 Magnum cases.
