    This is comforting to read because, man, does my Marlin like them at around 1860fps. I intentionally took my 12 gauge into the woods last season, instead of trying the new Marlin 357. I was concerned that the velocity might be just too much for a handgun bullet, and having it disintegrate like a varmint round.

    Kinda expected ta catch it but nope 1410 fps was enough for a nickle sided exit.

    Thank uou brother!

    HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    I have used that XTP. FP MANY TIMES AND ITS A VERY UNSUNG BULLET!!! Its like the best corelokt or any good rifle bullet it expands and penetrates!! I have taken deer and hogs from my Maxi and Mag in carbines and its a great bullet.

    Great successes. Nice to hear all the experiences with the 350 Legend. The load I used for mine was:
    16.8gr A2400
    147 gr 9mm cast PCed. (.357 sized)
    S&B srp
    Don’t know the fps yet
    No signs of pressure and it shoots safe and well in my ssr cva scout2 td rifle.
