Minuteshaver, I didn't mention loading colt data in my Schofield cases, next time I need to be clearer when I say something ,, i'm confusing folks.
Thanks I appreciate your input.
Forum: Black Powder Cartridge
Oh maybe I didn't make it clear sorry , i'm not using Colt charges in he 45 S&W I have separate Schofield data to use.
I have spent years reading my books and I have a ton of them and you are right...
Forum: Black Powder Cartridge
no not yet , I have finished " hogging "out the recoil shield so I can use the Kirst loading gate and after treating it with the OXPHO-BLU I gotta say the color match is awesome.
I'm in the process...

" I have been looking at this bullet and thinking of trying it in .45 acp."
Don't see why it shouldn't do fine in ACP, I generally go with my H&G 68 clone though, if it ain't broke ,,,, yadda yadda...

Thanks for the info bob, I see you seat it a tad longer than the recommended 1.600" and i'm guessing it doesn't interfere with the cylinder rotation any cos your shooting it.
I may measure my...
Forum: Cast Boolits
how deep do you seat that TC boolit, what's your overall cartridge length? ,
I don't have any TC designs, closest I have are SWC's,
just curious that's all.
man I wish my Unique supply was bigger...

I need to get " stocked up" again anyhow....

Hi guy's i'm looking to load for the 45 colt in a reproduction Rem 1858 with a Kirst converter ( 45 colt).
My question is if I want to stay within the safe zone here how do I know how deep to seat...

:drinks: ,,,, fella's.
I just ordered some schofield brass and a set of Colt / Schofield RCBS cowboy dies , I have an older RCBS 3 die set for 45 colt but wasn't sure if ALL would work with the...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Absolutely agree, I intend to stay well within the pressures & speeds that the BP revolver conversion can handle , no hot rods here.
I'm going to order some Schofield brass and maybe just buy some...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Hi guy's, I have a Rem 1858 nma with the Kirst conversion in it and have about 3 or 4 molds that will cast suitable boolits but the heaviest one I have is the 454374 at 230gn's , also the H&G #68 NOE...
Forum: Black Powder Cartridge
Yup the rod, I think you can get them from maybe at Taylors and some other outfits out there.
I think they make one called the Mason speed ejector which has the spring as most other offerings don't...

That is a much less messy way of getting a chamber throat measurement,
All this time I have been slopping Cerrosafe (spelling?.. ) all over the darn place.
Going to try that ,, thanks.
I too like the #68 , I have the NOE version and it's a gud-un.
The other 45 mold I use is the Ideal 452374 , I cast about 500 or so and then promptly sent it off to Erik to have it Hollowpointed ,...

Thx John, after snooping around the interweb last night I think I can pull this dermal job off,
It doesn't look too complicated and I have the tools so i'm going to order the Kirst and go for it.
