I've developed loads under 600fps with a 173gr boolit (Keith I believe)..... 1-1.5gr of 231 I believe (I'd have to check my records). Hits to point of aim at 25yds, but the entire boolit profile is...

I've had one on a 673 guide gun in 350 mag for over 14 years. No problems after 1000's of rounds. Even hundreds of 250grainers at 2500 fps!

Does anyone have any information on this semi-auto shotgun?
It appears to be pre-benelli, and I cannot find any information about it; good or bad.
Anyone ever heard of this stuff?
I have access to a few boxes of this stuff, and it appears to be military.
My concern is that is the +P++++ for Submachine gun use only, and that I couldn't...
