I have just purchased a 7.5" Ruger SBH in .45 Colt/454 Casull. I have a Wegand scope base and three ring set on order. I also changed my grip over to a Hogue rubber grip today. When the base and rings come in I plan to purchase a Leupold 2X EER scope and install it.
I have a several boxes of 300 grain Hornady XTP HP's and some H110 powder on the shelf already. I ordered some 454 Starline cases today and I was wondering. What is a good starting point with this combo using small rifle primers? I was planning on starting out with a minimum load of H110 and working up to around 30 grains. I don't hunt anything that requires elephant loads. My biggest game animal would be a 200 to 300 lb feral hog. With this in mind I would probably rather save my wrist from recoil and develop an accurate load somewhere between a stout .45 Colt load and the full house 454's.
