I meet Mr. Keith in 1974 at Champlin Arms. Mr. Keith was correct in his day; the 40's and 50's. Modern powders and modern guns have outdated his information. I am doing 1440fps with 335gr.bullet from my 5 shot 45 Colt. Not possible in 1960, no H-110 or 296. I am doing 2100fps with 45-70 encore with only 16" of barrel. Not possible in 1960 no Encore and no Reloader 7.

Fun with the 32-20 - Jim Taylor, 2020-02-12, 06:46
