1500 FPS is smoking for a 3" 357 mag, I thought I was doing good getting 1600 from a 6" 686. I wonder what those BB would do from a 6"?

I am using My Glock 31 with 125 GD's from Underwood they claim 1475 FPS. I don't currently have a chrony available to test them in my gun, everyone who has tested them says they are right on.
