45 Colt load w/2400
« on: November 15, 2005, 09:46:50 AM »
I need a light to medium load for a 45 Colt with a 185 gr. LSWC and 2400 powder.  I use 13.4 gr. with the 240 gr. LSWC, is that too light for the 185?

I never used 2400 with anything lighter than 200 grains in the .45 Colt.

I can't help but wonder if there isn't a much better powder for this combo, I wish I had a suggestion for you, Dustee (formerly Dusty?....why did you change it?........just curious) JD45
