I have shot hot loads in a SBH in excess of 1900 fps and a 240 grain bullet. The Box listed faster than 2K and this was an old 10 1/2" barrel. Nuckle buster on that dadgum trigger gaurd. I would think a 1:18" twist 200 grain 44 mag in a carbine would be as fast as a 35 Remington 200 grain.

        Yeah, but the 429 GNR holds a lot more powder... - Huey, 2019-11-18, 15:30
