Alliant data list a 190 grain jhp with BE 86 at almost 1200fps.
Hodgdon longshot list similar data with really high pressures.
I've tried longshot and accuracy is terrible.
My be 86 load gives phenomenal accuracy. I'm actually surprised when I walk to a 33yd target (That's our pistol range distance) and see 5 shots right at an 1.5 inches.
So I guess that's why I want to stick with the BE.
Just can't find published data or real world experience with 200 grain hard cast.
I'm not looking for set your pants on fire velocity but am thinking a 200 grain bullet in the 1,100 to 1,200 fps is real world 10mm velocities.
