What is interesting is they are not getting as much velocity from the 357's with 125 gr. as they are showing for the 10mm's with 140 gr.

  Wrong powder? I forgot to ask the test gun but it seems much lower than Buffalo Bore.

Black Max .357 Magnum 125gr (GP100 6") 1433, 1446, 1463. Average = 1447.33 FPS/ 582 LBS

Not bad but let's see how it does in gel. Could possibly be a little stronger.
