I recently found mention of ammunition from Buffalo Bore using 147gr bullets with a muzzle velocity of 1175fps:

Then I found Vihtavouri published data for their powder 3N38 in 2007 that says one can achieve 1207 fps with the 147gr XTP:

I'm trying to figure out how I feel about this. Has anybody used ammo loaded to these specs? Blast/flash/wear characteristics are also of interest to me.
