Ammo Selection for My 1894C
« on: January 18, 2006, 07:44:59 AM »
I picked up a new 1894C just before Christmas and have really been enjoying the trips to the range.  As ammo is getting costly I have found a reputable ammo reloading supplier that offers the 357 in different bullet grains and type.  As I am not the best educated on the right bullet grain for the application I was looking for some guidance.  Most of my shooting I do is steel plates at 50 & 100 yards.  I not looking for absolutes just your thoughts.  Here is what available:

125gr. TMJ Velocity: 1150 FPS Energy: 367 Ft Lbs
125gr. JHP Velocity: 1250 FPS Energy: 434 Ft Lbs
158gr. JHP Velocity: 1150 FPS Energy: 464 Ft Lbs
158gr. TMJ Velocity: 1050 FPS Energy: 387 Ft Lbs

Thanks, Tom
