From what I've read, 12" in gelatin is considered "effective" or "adequate".
Is the BB load just faster? I just bought a small box of Speer's gold dot load because they were the only .38s in stock and I wanted to try them... but now I'm wondering if I should just shoot them up at water jugs for fun and carry the remainder of my BB non +P 158 LSWCHPs. BTW can anyone track down that particular BB load at brassfetcher? I'd like to see the results but I couldn't find it.
thanks
