When I purchased my 329PD my first call was to a SW Tech rep named Whitehouse . He told me to stay below a 240gr commercial load pressure. I have since learned that garrets defenders are big and slooooooow......yet heavy 310gr hardcasts drive deep in the critter.
Hammerheads in my 45-70 and defenders in my 329PD.
Garrett of TEXAS !!!.....:o)
That sounds like a great round.
I think a 210 grain JHP over about 8.5 grains of Bullseye would be a pretty good man stopper if one were inclined to carry a 329. I load that for Mrs. L for her 629. Shoots well out of that gun, very controllable, and not bad muzzle energy numbers. Don’t have the manual right in front of me, though. But IIRC it pushes that pill right around 1100 fps or so.
Forgot to ask. What’s the velocity on that one?
Need to look at those for a 5" BBQ gun.
