What size bullets to use in 45 Colt, 454 casul & 460 S&W
Recently I went to a gun show where a gentleman was selling PC coated lead bullets. Very reasonably priced I might add. I tolled him I wanted them for my Encore 460 S&W, but I wanted to load it in 454 casul. So he told me you don't want .452 to small it will rattle around. That is for colt. So he directed me to .454 size bullets . My reloading manuals all show .452 for 45 colt, 454 & 460. So just to double check I went on Hodgdon's web sight. Also because my manuals listed very few powders for cast bullets. I entered 454 casul 250 gr lead bullet with H110 and got my loads. I also noted it said use .4515 bullets. Now .452 or .4515 is pretty negligible difference. So my question is. Is the guy right .454 ?
