.32-20 speeds?

[mordecai]

What sort of speeds are we looking for at Pistol Cartridge animals with 100-to-115gr bullets?

Some of my recipes have 800fps up to 1250fps - that's kinda of a wide range....
I'm trying to keep from "damaging targets" while keeping as flat a trajectory as can be expected.

Thanks a bunch...

Don't worry Mike, you will not damage targets with a 32-20. The 218B was outlawed because some people were loading it to fast and it was capable of damaging targets but really if the targets are for PC and not SB you should be fine at any of the speeds you mention, the 25-20 goes faster and I have not heard of anybody getting in trouble by damaging targets like some max 357 and 44 mag loads have in the past.

Mine and my wifes are doing about 1100 fps no target damage and shoots very flat.

I run mine about 1500 ft/sec using a 100 grn hornaday xtp bullet. No target damage. I move the williams about 16 clicks to the rams from the chickens.
