Try a 230 grain bullet and a nominal manual listed load of something like Bulleseye, Red Dot, Unique, Winchester ball like 231, etc. that is noted in the manual to duplicate factory MV or so. Loading it less than 750 fps or so would be a waste, as well as trying to hot rod it over 900. If you have a smooth barrel that does not attract leading buildup, one of the 230 weight LRN bullets could be a little cheaper to shoot. It might not shoot as good as your revolvers unless you have things tightened up a little for accuracy work, like match barrel and NM bushing hand fit by a gunsmith, not drop ins. Tightening the slide or other refinements beyond a decent combat trigger pull are getting into more expensive territory and not worth it unless you are gonna build an all out match gun or something. Or if your factory barrel is decent quality, just tightening up the fit and the NM bushing might help some.
