Unfortunately the DNR officers in MY jurisdiction disagree with you, because they can open the yearly guide up and show you that page about the "rifle" pistol rule needing to be .357 minimum they can...
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
powder in a factory cartridge can be anything. As they dont need to state loading data for it, they are happily using loads that would violate established loading data.

It not about shaving reloading costs by shaving half grains of powder, and its not about performance of different powders.

Once read an article from the 1990s about a group of guys who were hot rodding GP 100s, using heavily pointed bullets and loads aproaching 60,000 cup or PSI on their testing gear. They said the guns...
Im just wishing there were better loading data for speer HBWC. Really need one for 4227
In the olden days they did not mind slight slower velocities with BIG for caliber bullets. Look at them 180-230 grain slugs for the 38 family. Slow yes, heavy penetration yes, hard on the gun maybe...
