HAR!!!Wicked!!!!!but that gun loves to be run with the wick turned up real high.
Yes!!!most amazing little pill!I've noted this caliber trait (wanting to be pushed hard) in 32 H&R Magnum and 327 Federal, and I am not sure it is so much a "Caliber trait" as it is a "bullet trait". All of the jacketed bullets do their best work run near red line, as does the Lyman #313631. This latter bullet won't shoot worth squat until it is run past 1200 FPS for some reason.
Then we have the WONDERFUL RCBS 32-98-SWC, a plain-based gem that has performed well for me in all of the 32 caliber revolvers, 32/20 revolvers, and 30 Carbine Blackhawks. From 700-1300 FPS, it always does the right things.
Its not that long thin cast that seems to be key. (Long powder column) but @ 50K... I wouldnt bet against ya!!All of the 30/32 caliber handguns are louder than Hell's Drumline once the bullets are run past 900 FPS. I suspect that new 30 Super Carry autopistol will be another such eardrum drill.
Yup, a rimmed 9mm Luger!!! Why they thought that would sell was beyond me then and still is today. Add to the list the souped up 9mm like the Cor-Bon, the 87 different varieties of 40/41/10mm cal's that were either bottle necked, had a rebated rim, or other oddball "trick" that still didn't match the 10mm and only exceeded the 40S+W though crazy high pressures, the fairly numerous "45 Magnums" the the 460 Rowland that tried to turn the 1911 into an elephant gun and of course the 50 cals! There's even more over on the rifle side, like those electronically fired Remington jobs and bewildering array of short mags, super short mags, magnums that aren't magnums at all, about 27 attempts to make an 8MM that will sell in the US, etc, etc, etc.Well there is a cartritage called the 9mm Federal that died a quick death...
