Each gun is different, my Henry BBS 45 loves a fat bullet. I use an Accurate 45-255A and it drops at .453. 10 grains of Unique does quite well.

The #454190 is an old favorite as it's the original profile. But they're hard to keep from sliding back into the case when you stuff 14 in a 24 1/2" rifle's magazine. Yes I said 14 rounds on a UBERTI 1873 rifle. I also can get 14 .44WCF Cartridges in my UBERTI 1866 Yellow Boy.
You need a bullet with a long bearing surface and a very SHORT NOSE. Use a stronge TAPER CRIMP.
I HATE auto-correct
Happiness is a Warm GUN & more ammo to shoot in it.
My Experience and My Opinion, are just that, Mine.
