TLC359-190-RF in a revolver

[subsonic]

Anybody tried the Ranch Dog TLC359-190-RF in a revolver? They fit in my 686 when crimped in the top crimp groove, but just barely - like a 358429. I'm thinking there are a lot of revolvers they would fit. I'm going to try backing off of the Marlin rifle load data by about 2gr and working up a little at a time with Lil-Gun.

Anybody tried it? Have pressure data? Etc?

I have used this bullet in my GP100.

No problems with OAL, but they require an extra heavy crimp or the bullets will pull themselves out of the cases under recoil.

I used 13 grains of H110 for powder charge and the loads were safe in my pistol.

ACWW and shot without gas checks.

Too long for my SP101 - and it's not even the first model that was intended for 125 grainers only. Stick way out and nowhere to get a good crimp on it ahead of the crimp groove. Wouild work in a .38 Special case but I don't like loading .38 Specials above .38 Special pressures. Too easy for someone else to stick it in the wrong gun.
