I have been shooting 200gr HP and SWC in my 45's with 4.6gr of Winchester 231 behind them.
Recently loaded some 185 HP from Berry's, and got some interesting results.
No discernible difference in accuracy.
Slightly less recoil
occasional failure to eject in the 185's - this from a CZ97 with a 12# recoil spring. Never a failure to eject with the 200's, same powder load in each. Reluctant to go lower in spring power.
Next step get the chrono out and see what fps are.
Should there be any difference in ballistics at less than 25 yards?
