I was curious to see what kind of velocity I would get out of the rifle-length barrel on my 77/357. One of the loads I've commonly used for 15+ years is a 158 grain jacketed SP, or HP, over a max charge of H110. With a temperature of 33f, a five-shot string averaged 1721 fps out of the 77/357. That's over 1000 ft/lbs of muzzle energy. About the same as a 240 grain .44 mag out of a revolver at 1400 fps...
