A friend came into some reloading equipment as a result of a friend of his passing away. He can't use the included 100 rounds of .45 Colt and he gave them to me.
The data reveals a 255 cast bullet (Keith-style), CCI-350 primers, and 17.6gr of 2400.
I cannot find any data other than:
Hornady book that lists 2400 with a 200gr cast bullet, a Winchester Large RIFLE primer and a max load of 14.6gr of 2400 at 1000 fps
Speer book: 225gr JHP Max 14.8gr of 2400 at 912 fps, Mag LP primer
Speer book, for Ruger and Contender only: 225gr JHP, max of 19.0gr of 2400 with LP mag primer at 1259fps.
I assume the cartridges I received are useful only in Ruger and Thompson Contender? I would appreciate any opinions.
