What have you found in your manuals or on powder company websites?I'm looking for 250gn at 850-900 fps.
Got any good recipes?
A load I got from a Brian Pearce article in Reloader is 8.1 gr Power Pistol with your 250 gr bullet, assuming we're referring to lead. That is a level supposedly suitable for a gun like yours. It works in my Uberti El Patron. I don't favor shooting too serious a load in cowboy guns though. The range of Trailboss works well for me.I have been looking at the data in both my Hornady and Lyman manuals and also the data from Lee that came with my dies. There is ALOT of difference between the 3 even between the same powders and similar bullets of the same weight.
Just wondering if anyone here has got a wonder load I could try.
You might try some 255gr slugs and see where your poi is.
That's a good tight group though. It looks like your gun will be a shooter.
@Armored farmer thanks. I've been casting RBs for my front stuffers for years. I do it over the campfire coals like the old days. I really enjoy it. Talk about therapeutic!
Maybe it's time to try it for some centerfires.

I think I posted this load in that 6 page argument you started over which revolver to buy , but here it is again.
That holster seems to almost disappear against that pile of bullets. Eye tricks.Oh yeah. I totally get that.
I usually take a crappy winter day or three and get the woodstove fired up good. Exhaust fan running. Windows cracked. Lee bottom pour plugged in......
I try to cast a years worth of bullets. It's fun estimating how many of each of my calibers.
Coffee pot on the woodstove, maybe a pot of homemade stew.
Not too bad of a weekend imho.
