I tried BH209 in a .44 Magnum case with a .433 roundball as a bullet. I forget the actual weight but it filled the case leaving just enough room for the ball.
I shot these through a chronograph and it shot around 1100 fps with a remarkable consistancy out of a S&W model 29, I think they were all within 10-15 fps of each other.
