I have just started testing some samples of this bullet (I got them from a friend) in 45 Colt. So far it looks very promising in my guns. I may have to buyt the mould.
Has anyone here given this bullet a workout? What were your results?
Here is what I have got on Saturday in my 5.5 inch stainless Ruger Bisley:
Powder/Charge/Primer/Avg Velocity/Comments
Unique/8.5/CCI 300/968/ Pleasent to shoot.
Unique/10.0/CCI 300/1093/ Clean and very accurate just over 1.5" group, 4 out of 5 went into 1". I think this is a max load for this combination.
2400/18.5/CCI 350/1182/Heavier load but not bad. Pretty clean for 2400 too.
2400/20.0/CCI 350/1241/Heavy load, but accurate and almost no unburned powder. I think this one is close to max for this combination. I could possible go up to 20.5, but why? This is plenty enough for anything I might encounter.
Let me know what ya'll have experienced.
Thanks and God Bless,
