I did some more reserch this time on the .45LC and I am glad to see reported ftlbs energy levels running from 200 to 300 ft lbs! This is the low for Magtech Cowboy and the High Winchester .45LC. Full weight bullets and powder charges.
So good to see that full power loads and bullets are being loaded even sold thru the big Chain Stores!
IMO loads should approximate oldtime power levels!
I use the Winchester .38 Special 158gr whuch shoots @ 250ftlbs. My everyday reloads approximate or slightly exceed this level so I am trying go keep the power up and away from pipsqueak loads. I mean a full power Winchester .38 Sp dosen't kick that hard at all,and is solidly within CAS limits!
Good to see isn't it?
We need to keep things as "real"as possible!
