    Powder Measure - still weigh every one?

    When I get my measure zeroed in on the charge; about every 15 to 20 charges I throw 5 charges into the pan and weigh them. Divide that weight by 5 and you get the average weight of your charges. That takes the accuracy of my scale from .1 grains to .020 grains. This really helps with the...

    anyone with hornady 9th?

    I have a "One Book/One Caliber" revised 1995. It gives a listing for Hornady Bullet #35540 HP/XTP 115gr. at a COL of 1.050". Red Dot --- Min.3.7 gr. Max.4.1 gr. That seems like a pretty narrow range. Hope this helps.

    List of .45 ACP powders

    I assembled my first cartridge in 1969, my first .45 ACP in '81. I've used Bullseye,Win 231, Unique, HS-6, IMR 700X and VV N340 and had good results with all. I like the VV and Hodgdon powders because they fill more of the case and it's easier to see the powder level in the case.
