    Its more than a 350grn gun, I blast all the way upto 700grainer in it, 350s are light bullets, my favorite is 500 xtp with lil gun............kills bowlng balls dead. Probally have towait till tomorrow n get a few pounds of lil gun. Poop.
    This is an amazing pistol in an incredibly powerful round, reccomend it for anyone that feels the 44mag is a bit too light.

    I love SR4759 for everything over 400 grains. Use it like TrailBoss fill case to bottom of bullet for max load. H110 is also pretty good. If you have any small rifle powders you can fill the case with those for some moderate loads also.

    I get the best accuracy and velocities with Lil Gun.
