Just bought some Hawk bullets and want to try them at that level.

43.5 gr IMR 4350, 175-gr RN, WLR, Prvi brass, .010 off the lands: 3/8 inch at 100 yards in a 1909 Argentine. I haven't chronographed it but figure it's somewhere in the neighborhood of 2450-2500 fps. Pictures or it didn't happen. Kills meat pigs dead.

"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
