I have these bullets from Dardascast.com:
I measured a batch which I crimped into the groove above the last lube band, and not flush. I was getting about 680 fps with 2.8 gr of Bullseye, and 695 with 2.9 gr. using a Federal SP primer.
I was reading other sources on the next, and it sounds like I should expect ~800 fps from a 4" barrel with the 2.8 load. Should I try this same recipe with them seated flush and a light roll crimp on top? Is there any reason you would want to seat them out so far, into that first groove, as opposed to flush?
