PAT, have you ever noticed that your chrono sure reads fast for rounds you like.

I have noticed that the rounds I have tested in service sized guns are faster than published figures based on shorter 4 inch vented test barrel. The 4.5 inch glock gives more velocity than the 229 which is what most of the published figures were based on. ALso I am not the only one to get these figures. Ask any 357 sig shooter. As far as what Doc Glocker says over on the tactical board I could care less.
