Just curious as to what people prefer for a heavy 45 colt bullet. I have tried the 300gr Cast performance and wondering what you guys shoot. I am looking for something in the 300-350gr range for my Bisley.
Thanks,
Erick

I have a 335 LBT LFN that I originally bought for my 454 but it shoots pretty nice in my Blackhawk too. For a cheapie the Lee 255g FN works with lighter loads.

Any suggestions for shooting a 3 1/2 in Birds Head Vaquero?

one bullet that has been accurate in all my .45s at just about any speed is the 300 rcbs swcgc. Creeker bullets an advertiser on this fourm has some casted up if youd like to try them.

We sell the bullet of which Lloyd speaks, in fact I cast them from his mould. We also have this 355 grain bullet cast from an NEI mould I purchased from the old sixgunner himself, Jim Taylor.

In the past couple of years , I have ben using the LBT WFN in 325 gr. in the Ruger BH 4 5/8" bbl., with 20.0 gr. of H110. Fair amount of recoil roll. Groups less than 2" at 25 yds. and it makes a nice compact weapon to carry while hunting.
