I for one am somewhat skeptical of BPI loads--they are usually quite "hot"--1400 fps and only 7040 psi, really?
A 1 oz lead load in 2 1/2" cheddite, 18 gr Longshot, SG 16 wad, W209 is listed at 1200 fps and 7270 psi. I know, different payload, different wad , but 6 gr less powder, but getting slightly higher PSI. Wouldnt want to shoot that first load thru damascus until I was sure data is accurate.
