While at a pin shoot last night, a fellow shooter mention to keep hard cast velocity under 1100fps. Is this correct? I was under the impression that soft lead should be kept down but hard cast can go much faster.

I just bought 1000rds of Missouri Bullets 158gr RN hard cast for .38/.357mag. I loaded up some 38spl but I will be doing .357mag very soon.
