as a purely recreational shooter of 45acp, I tend toward kinder gentler loads.
I occurs to me as a retired technical person, that there is probably a relationship between velocity and accuracy.
Right now, I have coated and plated 200gr swc rounds and some 185 swc coated I haven't tried yet.
Norma has 45acp in 200 gr hollow point that they say is specially designed for
accuracy. I ordered some of those, but they are $$. Norma says theirs are in the 820fps range.
So the question: at what fps does accuracy suffer, given 25yard or less distance?
I will be chronographing several loads next week, but won't have any opinion
on accuracy until much later.
