.45 Colt load w/Bullseye powder
Has anyone developed an accurate load using B'eye powder in the .45 Colt using 250~260 grain cast bullets? I have tried the famous 6.0 grains of Red Dot and it was not good at all. Had been using 7.0 grains of W-231 with ok results in my Ruger Blackhawk.
.45 Colt load with Bullseye powder
:violin: While Bullseye has its applications, light charges in a case as cavernous as the .45 Long Colt is at best, a make-do practice. With 250 gr. boolits such as #454190 or #454424, Unique is a much better choice, being slower and somewhat bulkier. Try 8.0-8.5 grs. Unique which will about duplicate factory or black powder ballistics.
