looking for pet loads for the FA 454 casull and the barnes 250 gr xpb bullet !
I had a good load with lil Gun but have pulled the bullets because of the problems with lil gun powder in the 454 casull.
Barnes web sight has only accurate # 7 listed , but i dont have any and i have so many different powders now im sure something else will work ! i have, HS6 , blue dot , 2400 , WC 820 , 296 , H110 , H4227 , 1680 , 5744

But those are shiny bullets! :kidding:

What in the world are you going to do with shiny bullets??

In your shoes, I would try 2gr less H110 or 296 than you were using with lil-gun and work up as needed.

Im just trying to cut costs ! at nearly $1.00 a bullet load development is costly !! im used to shooting cast bullets myself! I use the barnes xpb in my 6 " and nosler hg partitions in my other ones with longer barrels
