Hey there everyone,
Ive been browsing this forum for a while and have a pressing question to be answered. I just started loading 45 acp (pretty much just started reloading altogether after a few years of just not getting around to it) so i broke out all of my old equipment and went to our local shop today and picked up the required equipment. I didn't even think to check the loading data, but thought i would trust the salesman instead. It has possibly proven to be a foolish mistake, and now i am stuck with 230gr LRN bullets and blue dot powder. it seemed good enough. that is until i broke out the old manual and no blue dot for 230 gr LRN. OK, OK this book isn't all inclusive, lets check the net. nothing, i have found nothing. There's plenty of data for FMJ and JHP but no LRN. Any help would be appreciated. i guess what i'm really asking is if blue dot can even be used with 230gr LRN and if so what weight of powder. A link to info would be nice.
thanks a buch for any help
