John Sandow spoke in hushed tones to Daniel Digriz:
JS> Personally, I'm curious as to why you would want to load a
JS> heavier  bullet.  When someone says a load is 'heavier',
I'm not sure I fully understand the difference between a heavier bullet and a 
hotter bullet. I grasp that a combination of grains and velocity make the 
bullet heavy, but I don't know how one increases or decreases velocity except 
by the grains.
The reason I got the 147gr Federal Subsonic hollowpts is I assumed:
1. quieter (subsonic)
2. slightly more armour piercing (eg. able to shoot through a car or a solid 
door)
What I want is
1. quiet, low flash
2. very piercing (cars, doors)
3. heavy damage (large hole)
4. no damage to my P-1
Groetjes,
