Range Report
I got out to the range today - with chronograph - to re-test the round (X-treme 200 PFP; 4.8gn TiteGroup), this time with the corrected OAL of 1.175.
I fired 50 rounds, with one FTF - I just had to re-rack, and it went in. Otherwise, they shot flawlessly.
I chronographed 24 rounds - 839.1 f/s; 11.51 SD. Compared to 850.1 f/s; 15.18 SD with the longer (1.202) OAL.
These are just range shooters; so I'm good with it at 4.8 grains; no further adjustments necessary. They run at nearly the same velocity as my decade's old recipe for 200 LSWC's (5.0gn W231/HP-38 - 843 f/s); and the recoil impulse feels the same. They run clean and meet their purpose.
