Hi All,
I have a new Vaquero 4 5/8" stainless and a Puma 16" stainless lever gun on the way. Both of these are chambered 45 colt. I have been reloading 10mm pistol rounds for about 6 months, but 45lc is new for me.
I have also purchase some Tite Group and Trailboss powder. I’m Just getting into this SA thing and I have some questions . . .
1.)I’m using Trailboss & Tite Group in the gun configs mentioned above- anyone got some good pet loads? Paper punching and cowboy style.
2.) really stupid, ut here it goes . . . I wanted both short and long gun in .45 colt so that I could keep things simple. Are the .45lc rifle loads and pistol loads done in the same brass or is the brass used to load 45lc pistol different than the brass used to load 45lc rifle?
3.) I will be using primarily lead bullets (Oregon Trail, Precision etc.) I have made loads in 10mm handgun and never had to worry about lube. Will I need to physical do anything different in the .45lc for pistol or rifle? I use a lee 4-hole turret press and already have the full die set with factory crimp. Any advice is welcome.
5.) Can anyone sugges a really inexpensive starter holster that will fit on a regular belt and still look kind of "period?"
6.) Any links to reloading 45lc in rifle and or pistol appreciated . . .
I'll be sure and post range reports on the two when I get them.
Thanks in advance,
Tbird
