    A lot of guys in our club run these for 3 gun and I've started using them.
    The advice I'd been given was that for an identical powder weight these will push higher velocity, similar to lead projectile.
    Everyone has had to drop their loads after chrono'ing them,

    haven't chrono'd mine yet but they shoot fine at much lower loads than I usually load to
