So i have been spending time relooking for a thread i found, it was talking about a safe load for both pistol and rifle that gave good velocity in the rifle. anyway someone i think Outpost75 posted it but it listed unique or bullseye loads with a 250gr bullet and he had given bullet drop and energy for the rifle and was thinking about trying out this load as it is not far off from some factory stuff i have shot out of both my pistol and rifle. and i wanted to use the data he gave for the bullet drop to help with regulating my sights on my 1892 clone as i need to file down the front sight some.. think there more set up for 454 or 44 mag to hit 100 yards i have to use up all my elevation adjustment in my rear sight
i would also like to hear other peoples loads for the 45 colt that work well in both rifle and pistol.
the guns i have are 1892 Rossi, 1873 Win clone and a couple of 1873 SAA clones.
for powder i have 2400, Unique, bullseye, Red Dot, HS-6, and 700X and of course 2FG BP but i want to keep this stuff smokeless as i am planning to use this gun for camping, woods work and short range deer hunting, and a little practice more looking for full power loads as i already have a decent low power load for the pistols for plinking
i also am planning to use only 250-260gr bullets as that is all i got molds for right now
