What did you do at your reloading bench today?

Hey Tom, what about the accuracy of the two loads, much difference?
I haven't ever used Universal.
Want to try some 2400 and a 250 gr for the 45lc

Randy what load are you loading in the 41 for steel plinkin.

[Vaquero]

Al, I have only had the gongs for about a year now, and I have not really shot the 41 at the gongs much.
Last year I didn't really shoot it all that much at all last year till I started working on the 270 gr cast load.
So if I were to at the moment, it would be those 270's and 17.0 grs of H 110.
Those will sure ring it at the 50 yd mark.
But that new one I will move out in the old hog lot, and will try them on it with some of those.
My last 210 bullet load was with Blue dot.

Ive got a ton of 41 mag bullets I need to use up. But my steel loads right now are 8 grain of Unique. When I shoot up these cast bullets I will probably use alot of extreme 210's They shoot good in the Henry.

I have a couple hundred lubed 210's that once are all gone.
Mine will only see PC'd bullets and probably more of the 270's than anything.
I have a Lee 210 mold, and this 270 one from Accurate, and a good amount of lead.
I have some jacketed stuff but, probably never use it.
Maybe for the Blackhawk.

Randy, the only time I tried that Universal load, I had only loaded ten rounds. They seemed pretty accurate tho. The target picture that Al put up a couple weeks ago should show those on the bottom portion. I'll know soon enough, 'cause I'm heading to the range Thursday, hopefully. I'll get you a report. Haven't tried 2400 in the 45C either. Yet.

Group sizes about the same, just the 8.0 hit higher which should be expected.

45 Colt for me is in the back of the closet. 41 needs some exercise and thats where I will be when Im not shooting round balls

Pretty much want to see about that Universal load. I have a bunch of Unique and only about 1/2 lb of Universal, so, we'll see. Never a bad thing to have two good loads for a firearm.
