Missouri Bullets HT coated .45 Colt 255 gr. test
Haven't used the coated bullets in my .45 Colt loads before today. I loaded up a batch using my 8.5 gr. Unique load and grabbed my six shooters
headed down to the range.
Results were just like my .44 coated bullet loads with clean bores in all three SA shooters.
Revolvers were the Uberti Running Iron with 3.5 inch barrel...Ruger New Vaquero with 5.5 inch barrel...and Ruger Bisley Blackhawk SS
with 5.5 inch barrel.
Was shooting different zones of target with each gun or trying too from 20 yds. standing one handed.
Very happy with results!
Those small hole were my neighbor shooting his 5.56 AR!

Sure do like that birds head grip and the wood it shows off.
Very nice photo of the revolvers and holsters. It is a cool invite to some range time.
The filled target is great, too!
Enjoyed your post.

Nice shootin Forty. I have one of those Bisley Rugers also. Same gun with the 45 acp cylinder. It shoots better than I do.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Yep mine also came with the .45 ACP cylinder but mostly keep it setup for hotter .45 Colt.
The group in bulls eye zone was from that revolver.

Yes sir. I sent both of my cylinders out to be honed out and evened up. Guy in North Carolina did it for me. It shoots very well now with those big lead bullets from MC
