My 170grn load is a Speer Hot Core over 31.2 W748 with a magnum primer.
Dang, we are close! I load the Hornady 170gr fn and 32.0gr W748. Pretty accurate load. Oh, mag primer. CCI.

HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY

I had two orders that were back ordered for over a month. Received both today ! 4 lbs of 2400, 100 Star-line .45 brass, 500 MBC 180 grain Strikers and 500 MBC 250 grain Cowboy #1.

It is a good day here in Arizona ! Now I have something to do with all my idol time.

Glad it finally came in. Even though I stocked up early there is always something I forgot.

Hey LeverJC,

I actually purchased a sample pack from MBC in January on recommendation from the forum for the 180 grain striker and the 45 Cowboy. I picked up 100 rounds of each (along with 405 grain buaffalo for the 45-70) Didn't get a chance to start loading them until February, ran out in March when the Virus hit the fan. Tried to reorder and everything and everyone was out and back ordered.

I am just happy I had my order in. I am now powder and bullet rich until the next crisis panic's everyone.

I got my MC 200grain 45 colt bullets today also. Just came up from cleaning the 1860 pistola and loading 50 more test loads this time with 5.8 gr of Red Dot. I used both the Matts 210 and the new MC 200. Will see how they shoot the next time I get out. Maybe tomorrow. Oh wait I gotta go to work.
