LEO and G-Man use of the .45LC? None in the latter, right? As for LEO, I knew of several Texas Rangers still carrying it. Not sure if it was duty approved, but they had them off-duty to be sure. After seeing my .45LC, a Gila County, Arizona deputy sherrif almost asked his boss if he could carry...
That load was one I saw in a web article. (Sorry I can't seem to find it now...) In the same article the author discussed a 300 grain cast lead pumped up to 1,700 fps that he fired at an Arizona jack rabbit. He said that he could find no parts readily identifiable as rabbit and that the blood...
Thanks for all the feedback. I never had a .410 and was unfamiliar with its balistics. :uhoh: I have limited internet access at the library and so I can't look it up that often.
I do love the .45 LC, but I know that cowboy loads aren't suitable at much more than a muley at 20 yards or a...
Redhawk was the first thing I thought of and then I saw the MSRP.:eek: Just too pricey anytime this decade unless Publisher's Clearinghouse finally gets around to sending that check:p. That's why I was wondering about the Judges and whether or not they could take hot loads or not. I can afford...
I am looking for a double action revolver for my wife that can take hot .45LC loads. I am also looking hard at the Taurus Judge series pistols and I was wondering if anyone knows how hot I can safely load ammo for it? I would like something that I could load for bear and still use for personal...
Thank you all for the responses. I cannot reply to them on my lame little phone:banghead:, but here at the library - when I can get in here - is a different story. :neener:
I think, for pistol range use then, the 200 grain cast lead is my choice and my RNFP's will do just fine, although I may...
I have a Uberti SAA reproduction. I was wondering if anyone knows: is the barrel a .454 or a .452? I understand that most, if not all, new SAA's use .452. Also, if I have one and use the other projectile (cast lead) what are the likely results?
Hello All, first post here.
First question: I was doing the math and it seems that (for a .45LC or ACP) a 200gr. cast lead bullet has more muzzle energy than a comparable 230 or 250 gr. cast lead bullet. I was using the formula of muzzle velocity squared x bullet weight in grains / 450411 =...
