Henry .45 Colt. Two loads! And a .22!

[Rifletom]

Finally got back to the range today in the foothills. A few loads to try in the .45. 8.5gr Unique, 7.0gr Universal, 7.5gr Alliant BE-86 and my standard 8.0gr Unique. All with Missouri 250gr rnfp plain[non coated]. They were all are good, but, the old standard of 8.0gr Unique and RR's load of 7.0gr Universal won out. Done trying different loads for that one. The .22 rifle is a Marlin 25N bolt with a 5 round magazine. And a nice stout 22" barrel. A few years ago, I mounted a pretty old Bushnell Scopechief IV on it. Still very clear and the adjustments work very well. At 50 yards, both rifles shot very good groups. A pleasant day at the range. Did my shooting and was back at the hacienda by noon. Dang near forgot how much fun those.22 rifles are. Gonna try to go again next Thursday. And now to make some spaghetti and shrimp and of course a beer or two or.......!

How much difference on the target was there between the 8.0 and 8.5 Unique loads?
I loaded up some 265 gr. WFN bullets I had from Cast Performance and at the 8.7 range of Unique and will shoot them in my revolvers and my 1873 Uberti.

Sounds like a fun day there, I also have a 25N, I was thinking it had a 7 round mag.
I have a NM also.
I never went below 8.5 on the Unique loads.
What no pics

forty, not much difference, but, the 8.0gr was a bit tighter.
Randy try as I might, this dinosaur cannot upload pics. I took a few, just can't figure out how to go from iphone to computer to here.
Pi**'* me off, but, it's my own untech skills. Was really happy with that 25N and old scope.

What I do with pics taken on my ipad. I post them up on my facebook account "For Me Only" and then on my desktop computer I grab them off facebook and send them to my main pictures file. From there on my desktop I load them here using Attachments.
Beatin' around the bush but it works.

I have a Macbook. With the Iphone theres a feature called airdrop. Find the pics on the iphone hit the airdrop button and it will just send them right to the mac with a tap. Its really nice and easy peasy

Anything that I can save to my Android phone I can post on here using the attachments.
