bullseye +185g lswc

[kyo]

Hey guys I have found some data on the 45 acp 185g lswc bullet, but I just want to ask around to make sure.
From what I have seen, if I use bullseye the start would be from 3.5g to 5.0 grains.
Does anyone have any experience using this or 200g lswc? I can use a load that is for a heavier bullet for this configuration. Thanks

200 Grain .45 SWC with Bullseye

5.0 grains of Bullseye behind the H&G 68 is a dream come true. Mine crono at about 930 fps, 5" Colt barrel.

3.5gr may not cycle some slides. 3.8grs with 200gr lswc is a good target load at about 720fps.

Funny you ask this question. I shot 100 rounds of 3.6 gns Bullseye (BE) pushing a 185 LSWC Missouri Bullet today. My Les Baer can put 7 of these in an inch at 25 yards, when I do my part. Very, very light recoil, almost to soft, but deadly accurate out to 25 yards. Watch the hardness of your LSWC's, a 12 Brinell hardness is good for low to medium velocities, and 18 is good for the faster stuff.

You can start at 3.6 gns BE and go up, using good loading data of course. In case you didn't know, Bullseye was originally developed for the 1911 many, many, decades ago.
