Ran my test rounds today - got a REAL nice group with open sights @ 25 yds. I'm shooting Hornady 125 gr XTP's. Accuracy charge was 21.6gr. out of my Taurus with 6" barrel. This is a hunting round. Note to self - hearing protection was used, and is not optional when hunting with this round. Recoil was suprisingly light - probably due to lighter bullet. Muzzle flash would probably blind you at night - It was huge. Planning on using this for a deer/hog round. Velocity should be in the 1900fps range. Group was about 1.5" with a 5 shot group.
I ran the shots in 2 gr. increments up except for last one. I went .1 under max. Glad I did. Brass was difficult to extract.
