First post here. I've been loading for my handguns for a while now but never any cast "boolits". This afternoon I loaded some 45 acps using CCI 300s, 5.7gr of ZIP and Dardas 200gr RNBBs. Lookin foward to maybe shooting a little this week.

I use 5.3 of 231 for a 200 swc in the 45 acp.

Do not argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Where did you get the loading data for ZIP? I am not familiar with it, other than knowing it
is the fastest pistol powder that Western markets, and I'm not absolutely certain about that
"fact".

If it was easy, anybody could do it.
Ramshot load guide, Edition 4.2. You can also go to the website. ramshot.com and pull up the load guide. I have some 231 on hand, might give it a try next.
another plus 1 for win231 here but it is a bit dirty. Looking forward to trying out WST next though.
