Using CFE223 I get 2700 FPS with a 250 grain bullet in my 35 Whelen 1885 Highwall
Sounds like experiences vary. Suspect chamber pressures, barrel lengths and bullets make a difference.
I would be curious to know the chamber pressure, regardless of powder, to get a 250 grain bullet to 2700 FPS with a 35 Whelen or 2800 fps in a 358 NM case. North of 70K psi I suspect.
Physics of volume:pressure and potential:kinetic energy conversions are stubborn things.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty of give me death! P. Henry
