Hodgdon's lists 8.5 grn of Longshot as a starting load for the 180s. In a 5" barrel it produces 1200+ fps at 31,000 psi.
Using the cast bullets seated long, I believe they're probably producing under that with the same charge.
My gun has a 6.5" barrel and 1.5" cylinder with almost no barrel gap. My .0015" feeler gauge won't even try to fit. That's 3" more barrel at minimum.
Thinking that puts me 20% plus under maximum pressure limit of 37,500 psi. Guess that's just my definition of low...
