My dad used to use this bullet in his 2nd generation SAA, loaded over 7.5 grains of Hercules Unique. He also shot NRA Bullseye, so I "suspect" that this bullet did double-duty. It also shot to the sights of the Colt...which would shoot about 4 inches high at 25 yards with a 250-255 gr. bullet.
Has anyone experimented with this bullet in the .45 Colt? What powder and load did you use? As I remember, the Unique load was fairly accurate, but dirty. He also loaded on a Tru-Line Jr. turret...so his loads were neck sized.
I'm looking for loads that are a tad more gentle in the recoil department, as well as being more economical.
Anyone?
