Great shootin as usual RR. I think I may have to try that load when I get my reloading setup finished. My BBB in .45 colt doesn't like the Buffalo Bore or Double Tap hollow points or the LEVERevolution I've run through it , all 255gr.

TMB thats all some pretty hot ammo. Try slowing it down some and see what happens.

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.......

The BB Brass I had for awhile shot Winchester Super X cowboy loads very well. 250 gr LFN. Black Hills too. Hornady was fine too but all I shot was 255 gr LFN as well.
