NewCould you elaborate? I recall a time when published information on pressure and velocity were pretty raggedy. Maybe, I'm missing the mark here but seems like when factory charges were downloaded it had to do with improved instruments for measuring pressure?
Personal Observation...not looking for a fight. I kinda got interested in factory loads for 38 Special before the time of +P's. Checked out Remington's offering in a 1967 Gun Digest. Looks like I could have bought 38 Special cartridges with performance levels same as our +P's. The figures were for factory 158gr. lead bullets. My feeling is that much of +P is marketing. Could somebody be making water on our leg and telling us it's raining? Then or now I'd not make a habit of regularly shooting +P in my 38 Special K frames.
The wild and crazy numbers we are discussing may have come from the fertile minds the advertising department (s).
