      What's Your Favorite Powder for .45 Colt?

      My wyoming Bear loads are 240 gr hornady XTP with 21.4 Gr AA no. 9 Chrono at 1,162 out of my RUGER black hawk, - 8.1 gr of Red Dot produces a velocity of 934 and is a little more comfortable to shoot - these both work well in my back packing 45 colt Henry lever gun.

      So.. what are you reloading at the moment??

      Just Took the Plunge Into Reloading

      have been loading since 1972 and excellent advice given above - I would add - Pay attention and do not allow distractions because they do lead to mistakes- I will not let my wife in my reloading area while I am working - I loaded a 22-250 round with no powder and I was lucky it the bullet...
