270 SWC and 45 colt steel

Post by **Hidden Mortimer** » Tue Nov 21, 2017 7:36 pm

Quick question. Anyone have experience with Rimrock’s 270 gr SWC in their 45 colt rifles. I want to get some for my Blackhawk and I’m hoping they will shoot well out of my future Henry BBS.

I've run 200gr to 360grlead in bb with a little work you will get them to work just fine

Above 300gr there wfn my BB will run 1.63 oal
Under 300gr there a mix of different profiles
They all shoot and feed just fine

Good deal. Thanks!

I currently load the 300 XTP Mags at 1.63” with no issues cycling. I was a bit worried that a WFN profile would be trouble but it sounds like I should be good.

445sm, all those feed fine in your henry? That’s awesome.

Is there a weight range that you’ve found to be most accurate?

Just get what you like ( I like them all) and start working on the sweet spot
I keep the 325gr at 1435fps with lil gun the 360 will go 1400 but I keep them
At 1250 nicer to shoot
