[QUOTE="BadgerLB, post: 1499745, member: 7145"] Shooting as hot as you're wanting to shoot you're gonna want to shoot jacketed, plated at the very least... so that rules out the cheaper hard cast boolits... If it were me, I wouldn't be so worried about how fast it's going, but that's just me, you can work up to around 1000 fps with hard cast. For me I'm loading about 3.4 grains of bullseye under a 125 gr lead round nose.. I use em for uspsa (when I shoot em) and steel challenge. Word of caution about your bullseye or unique loads, go slow with em, pressures with these flake powders get high fast, but the trade off is less felt recoil and faster reacquisition. Go slow start at or slightly below minimum, and find what your gun likes. [/QUOTE]
