HW 75 why such low power?

[MikeHW45]

My 75 is amazingly accurate and also around the 3 ft lb level. One thing to remember is that feet per second to ft lb is not a linear power curve. E.g: An 8.4 grain pellet produces 3 ft lb at 401 feet per second and 11.35 ft lb at 780 feet per second. So in actual fact 401 feet per second for a target pistol is actually plenty!!

Hey Mike,

I knew you had the '40 but didn't realise you also had the '75.

Would you be so kind as to bring it to The Bash, pretty please?

Got two FAS 604, lucky if you get 3 ft.lb. out of them, my Baikal 46 and 46M got just under 4. The 46M has a slightly longer chamber to scrape about 3.88 ft.lb.
