I am trying to estimate the velocity of the 125 gr .357 Gold Dot out of my Smith model 60 with a 2 1/8 inch bbl.
I found a thread online where the Remington 125 gr .357 clocked at 1317 fps out of a 640. Like the Gold Dot, it is listed at 1450 fps out of a 4 inch bbl.
Since both loads are 125 grains, and both go 1450 fps out of 4 inch bbls, would not the Gold Dot run around 1300 fps out of my 60 (same bbl as the 640)?
