Default RE: handloading the 38-55

1600-1800 fps with cast. Slightly higher if you want to shoot a lighter bullet or a GC, or a jacketed bullet. If you do some research you will find this round to be effective past 150 yards. The rifle you are considering would be a very fun rifle at a reasonable price. Especially if you cast your own bullet's. Tom.
