I'd only ever loaded "minor power" .38 Super, 130-135grs @ 1000fps, for competition, but I'd accumulated an odd assortment of jacketed bullets, loaded them at the hotter end of the spectrum, but haven't made a range trip with my chronograph, since.
It's going to be over 100 degrees the rest of the week, so maybe when it cools off!
Any good loads for a 147@1200?
