I carried a sawed off pistol grip 12 ga. slung for fishing Alaska. This year I've worked up a load for my 45 L.C.s I use a 335 gr. gas checked hard cast lead over 20.2 gr. H-110 in Starline cases.(Starline and P.M.C. Cases run about 6-10% heavier than say W.W. or R.P.) That way I have the same vol. and pressure. I shot up to 21.5 gr. but, 20.2 seems to be the most accurate in My guns. One is a 4-5/8 barrel,the other 5-5/8 both are Vaquero's Bisley frame. I would caution You to start at 19.2 and work up watching for signs of excess pressure,and only in heavy frames like the Rugers,and T.C. s. I haven't chronoed yet but You can split log's with them.
