Check my data, but 18.0 grn pushes a 158 grn XTP from mine at 2058 fps. Very good accuracy too.
I won't use Lil Gun in my revolvers, but it's almost magic with pistol rounds in Carbines.
That is one powder I've never acquired yet The only

magnumish handload I've tried is 10.0 gr A#7 with a gas checked swc. It worked well. I usually dump a LOT of 357 target loads and factory 38 specials through it at various steel targets (25 to 50 yds) as fast as I can reacquire the sights. Blown up some melons with the above #7 loads and some Winchester 357 self defense loads. It's almost as bad as an AR or 9mm 1911 for using up a lot of ammo real quick, so I haven't really wrung it put as far as power and velocity goes
Mine are sweet too.

The 1894 CSS has nice wood also but not that good. I have slicked it up real nice. It's getting prism sight on it. They have an etched 1 MOA glass. It also lights up if you need it. I have one on an AR. Great to 400 yards. Bout as good as I can see any more is 300.
Would love a CSS. . .
