Goodmorning Mule Deer,
I'm just recently working on a hunting load for my 357 mag 686 Smith and have come across some conflicting information and am hoping you could clear it up for me.
I picked up a box of 158 FP-XTP Bullets to try because on the top of the box it says recommended velocities is 700-1500 fps. However, in the Hornady 9th edition load Manuel it says this bullet is intended for 1150-1800 fps while the Hollow Point version is intended for 700-1400
Do you know if Hornady changed the design of the 158 FP-XTP recently or is it a print error. Thanks for your time
Trystan
Good bullets properly placed always work, but not everyone knows what good bullets are, or can reliably place them in the field

Trystan,
If you're really curious, you'll have to ask Hornady. I have not idea about the discrepancy.
