Does someone have data for a historically correct load for a .45 Colt revolver load of the Old West?
What bullet weight and shape? What hardness lead was used?
How many grains of Blackpowder and what granulation?
When was the switch to smokeless powder?
When did the first jacketed bullets enter the scene?
What velocites can be expected?
Where to find info on actual gunfights with what ammo and gun combination?
Thanks in advance, like to replicate the original loads and shoot them in a Ruger Blackhawk 4 5/8".
