NH, wish we were closer I'd swap ya a lb of 4895 for that 4350.
That's what I use in my buddies 270, and I'm all but out.

Vaquero, hmmm...I guess all I'd have to do is tell my wife that a drive down to Memphis is a vacation and that swapping one pound of powder with a fellow reloader was only a coincidence!

Made up those 18 .243 Win. trial loads with the IMR4831, but I only had 90 grain Sierra FMJ not the usual 85 grain HP GameKings. I think it'll be close enough. When I find some 85's I'll double check.

Loaded up 200 rounds of 45 Colt. Have a friend coming over Sunday and he's never fired a 45 Colt round. Plan is to take him to the range and introduce him to a lever gun and single action pistol.

Good plan Paul. It's a fun round to shoot and If he's like a few folks I introduced to the .45 Colt, he'll love it too.

Loaded up some .45 ACP using small primer brass. Many thanks to Randy for the brass!!

I had 8 large rifle primers left, so I filled 8 45-70 cases with Pyrodex and topped them off with some 350 grain cast bullets. At least I can make a bit of smoke.
Really need some more primers.

Forty, I thought sure I had more small primer .45 auto cases, but, appearently not. Just the 30 I had loaded up.
