Howdah 45 ACP G2 - Since I'm now a twin, nothing to loose...

But, I need to get back to this barrel. Was testing Longshot Powder at my last outing with the gun.

There is a particular GT HP Cast Bullet that I thought would be great in this gun. Notice how this bullet doesn't seat deep and reduce powder capacity like some designs.

I'm not recommending my load data for anyone else.

I researched 45 Super and 460 Rowland Data before starting. Long story abbreviated, I ended up pushing a 250 grn Cast HP at 1300+ fps. The data I used produced 28k in the published data.

Many will argue (and have) that the 45 ACP case isn't capable of this. Give it a fully supported chamber and some careful handloads, then look out.
