I price on videos that The Cops shoot 3 to7 shots to down a bad guy(with 2 cops usually more shots!) In...

    Hpowder granulation size.

    Reading several posts, the question of 4vs 3F to get optimum performance in revolvers causes me to wonder if the smaller granulation would result in overcharges ?
