Default 45 Colt Bullseye Loads

Going to start reloading for 45 Colt as soon as my 25-5 shows up next week. It has the good throats/.452”-.453”, 4”bbl. I have 8-10 lbs Bullseye on hand, so I’m looking for some good range loads, accurate and light. Am open to bullet weights, was looking towards 250/255gr SWC. Also, has anyone heard of having problems with sight adjustment and light loads ratio, on the 25-5? Previous owner was saying he ran out of elevation adjustment, until he stepped up his loads around the 850-900fps mark? I never heard of anything like that, but never owned a 45 Colt either. Thanks.
