I use an mp 360-640 hp. It drops 145gr as a deep hollow point and 155gr as a solid. It will give you the option of multiple weights by changing the pins. Feeds great.

I've used cfe pistol in 45 colt a little. It's all gone now, but I tried a load with a 260gr bullet. It was a little over hodgdons load. They tested a 250gr with 9.2gr of cfe pistol for 1014fps at...

What does that rimrock 255 measure? On rimrocks website it says it's .812, and has a nose to crimp of .373, is that correct? If you're using the 429244 or 429421 as a reference, those have a pretty...

Now that had some stories I hadn't heard before. Thanks.
I use around 17lbs of coww and add 1 pound of monotype. I'm not sure what to call it other than a mongrel alloy. I think it close to 4% antimony and 1% of tin. I do powder coat them with a dark grey...

Midway was trying to get rid of it a while ago. They were selling #1 for $18 and 5# for $98, so I have a bunch too but haven't really messed with it that much. It's pretty fluffy so in some...
