Thanks guys, appreciate the info.

One last question, does anyone know why the ammo companies still even produce these loads if they have such newer better performing stuff on the market? Just always wondered....

Because people still buy them...kind of like why they still sell hard and medium bristle toothbrushes, or push crappy beer like Olympia and Budweiser...

and people still buy them because they are cheaper to make, and thus sell for a lower price.

Because they're cheaper and they still work, albeit not as well as the stuff that costs twice as much.

But then again, I've no dog in the WWB fight, my SA 1911 doesn't like WWB, be it ball or JHP. I feed it Remington's version of WWB and works just fine.

Found my notes on the gello shot we did here a couple of years ago.

Ref the WWB .38 +P 125gr JHP, fired from my 642, through heavy clothing, a three shot average was 829fps, expansion at .415, penetration 16"

I've seen worse .38 loads
