Hi All,
Went to the range today.....brought along the vaquero...
I had some Black Hills 45 colt that shot to point of aim at 25 yards....shot a little left of center...but that is the shooter not the ammo...seemed rather tame....as far as felt recoil...
Then I ran some handloads using the load data from the alliant website...
15.4 grns of 2400 for a 250 grain bullet.....seemed like a bazooka in felt recoil...
so when I got home I looked up some more info....the lee reloading guide...(albeit from a number of years ago).... and most loads for that weight bullet were is the 9 grain range....HS powders etc....
Does the data for the current 2400 seem kinda 'hot'?? Anyone load with 2400 and that weight bullet a bit lighter.... I also noticed some unburned powder....any thoughts..?
