Rainier Load Data for 45 ACP, 200gr SWC
I started loading these using the “lead” bullet charts in my Lymans 49th edition manual. The manual has two load tables for lead 200 grain bullets and I want to make sure I’m using the right one.
I loaded 30 rounds of the following:
200 gr SWC Rainier
1.23 OAL
5.6 grains of Winchester 231 powder
I shot these in two pistols a few days ago with good results. The accuracy was good and I saw no signs of overpressure.
Does anyone have any more information on the Rainier 45acp, 200 grain SWC with Winchester powder? I haven’t been able to find any load data and want to make sure I’m in the safe zone.
Thanks in advance.
