While I haven't put my load over a chronograph, the load data provided by Hodgdon for the 115 grain Speer Gold Dot Hollow Point bullet shows 1059 fps using 5.3 grains of CFE Pistol powder. From that, I estimate + or - 1100 fps for my load.

It's a very pleasant load to shoot and brass isn't thrown very far. Primers are still well rounded and I see no signs of pressure.
