4" Redhawk in .45 Colt, I want to drive a 255 gr SWC at 1k fps, give or take. Most of the load data is for a 6" or 7" barrel. I'm thinking of trying Accurate #2. Anyone have any recommendations?
It's the .45 Auto/.45 Colt combo. I could, in theory also purchase some .45 Super brass and load that.
Purpose is: reasons. This isn't for any real purpose other than for funsies and because I like loading .45 Colt. I probably should have just went with the 6" version to begin with, or trade into one, but I'm still playing with the 4" for now.
I've been using Acc #9 for hotter loads, but I'm thinking the burn rate and amount of powder isn't really geared toward the 4". I'm looking for a more efficient load to get the velocity I want but less recoil and muzzle flash. (I know it's not going to be low recoil...just lower)
