Anyone have any loads, or sources for loads for 45 Winchester Magnum?
Anyone have any loads, or sources for loads for 45 Winchester Magnum?
So for my brothers Grizzly I loaded up 230 grain jacketed over 24.5gr 4227 (Max load is 25 grains). Worked very well in his pistol.
Speer Manuals 9, 10, and 11 all had jacketed data. My good friend, the late Rick Harbert, had a Grizzly which he doted on. His favorite load was 22.0 grains of 2400, under a 200 grain "flying ashtray" Speer JHP. He liked that powder charge because it was the same as the one he used with his 44 mag and Keith 429-421's. (I should point out that 44 Mag load now exceeds SAAMI max, though Elmer Keith and many others, including me, used it--a lot.)
