45 LC question
Picked up a Judge and was looking for ideas on a good load and bullet combo?
I picked up some new nickel cases just need powder and bullet combo. Any suggestions? Thank You

Re: 45 LC question
I am on the road but if memory serves I use 7.5 grains of Universal under a 250 grain LRN flat top. I like this combo a lot in my 7.5 in blackhawk and 4 in s&w model 625 mountain gun.
It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern.

Re: 45 LC question
I have used 7.8 grs. of Unique and a 250 gr Keith style bullets for years. Just sub a JHP and you in business. With the big flat nose SWC you really don't need a JHP. It does penetrate well and that may be an issue.

Re: 45 LC question
The guy I had lined up to reload my 45LC is too busy to mess with it. Anyone here willing to reload 300 rounds for me? I have New primed cases. Send me a PM if you can help.
