Hi All,
I'm about to start loading some 45 Colt with Trailboss and am finding the load data from Hodgdon to be a real PITA. With a 200 grn RNFP bullet, the max data I can find on the Hodgdon reloading site is "6.5 grns = 855 FPS at 11,000 psi". Great, but what if I want to load hotter than that? I click on the "45 Ruger/TC only" section and find that Trailboss isn't listed as a powder choice.
Does anyone here have pressure data for Trailboss in 45 colt that goes up beyond the 14,000 psi SAAMI limit? I'd like it for both 200 and 250 grain bullets.
NOTE: It's not that I'm looking explicitly to make hot loads with Trailboss, I'd just like to try a wide range of loads with that powder in 45 Colt and I can't find any data. I'd like to go up to 8 grns and back to see what works best for me.
Thanks.
