2- parts 45 CAL 225GR JSP & 45 long colt wadcutters

[Jaco1234]

I am trying to locate 45 cal 225 grain Jacketed Soft Point projectiles.

I can find Federal factory ammo, but I dont like it.

I am running low and need some to reload.

for a Rossi 92 - 8.5gr BE86 consistently hits a 1 liter bottle at 100yd with open sights.

Anyone loading full wad cutters for 45 long colt?
What is your load and overall cartridge length?

Thanks

That is a good load for a 250 grain LSWC.

I prefer LSWC over WC

Have you considered the 45 Cowboy Special? Brass is availale from Starline.

Try going to ammoseek dot com. Select reloading then bullets. You will get a dropdown for diameter and weight.
