S&B published velocity for their "standard" 158 gr. FMJ is 889 fps and Geco is a sizzling 968 fps. Both companies told me these were from a 6" barrel and are loaded to CIP standards. Neither commented on +P ratings, likely being a SAAMI rating, when I mentioned those velocity exceed most US made 158 gr. +P loads. So would these be safe to fire in a non +P gun ? Has anyone chrono'ed either ? I ran some through a Taurus 85 snub nose (+P rated) and it was very snappy. Any info or comments ? -Thanks
