RIP Mr. Linebaugh. You will always be remembered. Many have used your advice. "The .45 Colt--Dissolving the Myth, Discovering the Potential" I adopted the .45 Colt as "my" six gun cartridge. Also,...
Any old timers remember when this W630 was $4.75. I'm on my last can. It had a gas cutting issue and was discontinued in the late 70's or early 80's. Works great in my .45 ACP +P and Super loads for...
I use BD in my NM Blackhawk. Speer #10 shows 260gr Speer JHP in Ruger only starting 13.8gr-14.8gr max. 14gr. under a 255 Lee SWC or RF burns good for the Rugers. BD needs higher pressures to burn...

Not true. Speer states only "The data in the Number Eight and earlier Manuals was based on primer appearance, ease of case extraction, and case head expansion. These methods are still valid, and are...
I use it for subsonic rifle loads. It burns like trail boss and has low energy per grain.

I've herd this is repackaged Maxam CSB-1. Has this been confirmed. As I have loaded my lot of CSB-1 from HiTech to 5.4gr. under a Lee 359 125 RF boolit with no ill affects in a Rossi 851 .38 Special....
Picked up this data off fleebay when I ran into some NOS Norma 2020 & 2010.
It's burn rate is between Red Dot and PB/Green Dot.
Speer 8

So that means your old school and entitles you to over pressure the cartridge? IMO use Red Dot for what it is, light to moderate economical loads...
1.070" OAL works well in the Beretta 92 and Ruger LC9 I load for
Have not had good results with the Ishy's 1:12 twist and sub or super boolit loads with Lee 170 and 160 weights sized .309". I so would like this weight (240gr) to work in my Ishaphore 2A1, it shoots...

Hello, I'd like a little input on open carrying a Ruger BH .45 Colt loaded with 310gr. Lee boolits over 24gr. H110 in my Starline cases in Yellowstone this summer. I intend on using pistol as a last...

From Venezuela I believe. Not nato spec. But loads just fine. 3X and counting full power M80 ball loads, no problems. Weights about the same as LC cases, has a thick web.

Inleted and epoxied a Harris 2A stud adapter. Was thinking of fitting a picatinny rail similar to the one for the M14 that's available. But want to be less invasive to the stock....

I would say yes. If it burns between 844 and 846. I've used both in my .30 cal. I'd be interested in where I could get some WC845?

95' Arl. Ord. SA 3.2 Mil receiver T26 7.62mm Nato NM bedded and unitized. Haven't shot many boolits out of the tube, just Subsonic cast loads. Don't care if it's all commercial, all correct WWII...
