Johnny, I've been experimenting lately with H110 using the Hornady 240 gr XTP bullet in my 4 3/4" SBH. So far results have been good ------ accuracy 1 1/2" 25 yd groups at about 1200 fps using 23 gr. of powder. The recoil seems like more of a push than quick and snappy (was using 2400). The only downside is you have to be really careful in regard to crimp and down loads are not an option. As a comparison I'm loading 20 grains of 2400 behind a Winchester 240 gr. JHP in my 4" 29 Smith and getting about 1150 fps. These short tubes are not too good at achieving maximum velocity, naturally. regards, birdman
