I'm getting into reloading and have my 'gear' list, however, now I'm down to the brass tacks...which powder to buy.
Here's my situation...
I'll be reloading .45acp AND hopefully 30-30win (I picked up the die set from craigslist for $6!!!)
When I've been reviewing manufacture load recipies, the only powder that is compatible between the two is IMR Trailboss - it does NOT have the velociy I'm looking for.
My specs are:
.45 ACP - 230gr LRN
.308 (30-30win) in either 160 GR. CAST LFN OR 160 GR. HDY FTX
Note, I'm NOT into cowboy action shooting, which is what Trailboss is designed for, thus the low velocities.
I'm hoping for about 875-925 ft/s on the .45acp and 1900-2000 f/s on the 30-30.
Thanks for all of your help!
Anyone have a powder outside of the Hogdon/IMR/Winchester family that will suit my needs
