I have been using the Sierra Pro Hunter 200 grain JFN. Don't have info with me, but think I was getting 1800 fps with 36 grains of RL-7.
I got a box of 185 grain Lehigh Controlled Fracturing bullets but haven't loaded any yet.

I found a few 300 grain XTP's that I had loaded for a rifle. They are going 1300fps from my Encore 44.

My 5" Super Redhawk likes 240 grain XTP's and the 270 Deep Curls.

1950fps with 35.5grs RL7 and a GM210M primer in Starline brass. Start with 32grs and work up. It is pretty warm but still within the the book.

I was a handgun hunter, when handgun wasn't cool.....
