Kenny,

Do you know what the pressures are for these B&P loads?

I bought some of these a few years back. After shooting them I came away feeling that they were a pretty stout load judging from the recoil they produced after shooting them in several different guns. I decided not to order any more and have stayed with RST's. I've never had the perceived recoil from the RST's that I got from the B&P's. Don't get me wrong, I think B&P makes great ammunition. I just felt they were a little stout for the wood on my old SXS game guns.

The B&P website shows this load at 720 bar of pressure. Not knowing what this represented in terms of PSI I googled a conversion on it and the web tells me this translates to 10,442 PSI. Yikes !
