I have an 1873 SAA colt clone and the thing loves 255gr coated bullets and unique. I even load them down to 6.5gr or so. The problem is that 255's are expensive and I see that a lot of the cowboy shooters use 200's or even 180's or even 160's. Would I be able to use a lighter bullet going about the same speed and keep the POI close? I have the traditional fixed sights...
Also how much less recoil would they have?
