357 carbine vs pistol velocities(reduced charges)
Hi Folk's, nice forum. Just dropped in to see if any lever experts can help. My question is wondering what velocity increase might be going from 10" pistol(hodgons test data) and a 24" barrel 357 carbine(rossi 92) with 158grain cast bullets. The proviso is reduced low pressure charges. A 400fps+ increase is normal for heavy powder loads but I am doubting you would get the same for small powder charges as below...200fps?
Hodgons 10" cast bullet data.
Titegroup 4.5grains 1,028fps 5.0 for 1108fps
700-X 3.4grains 867fps 4.9 for 1137fps.
Thanks for any guesses?
