.45 Auto Rim?

I'm probably going to buy another cylinder for my S&W 625JM then have it fitted to the gun. After that's done I'll send it off to Clark Custom guns were it will be retrofitted to fire 460 Rowland. Then you will be able to shoot 45ACP, 45AR, and 460 Rowland. I was also told that you can fire 45 Super if you have the 460 Rowland upgrade.

According to Buffalo Bore you can shoot their .45 Super loads in a standard 25-2/625. The tech I spoke with has shot hundreds of rounds through his with no problems...

Interesting, I suppose I'll have to try this out.

Once you have Clark do the .460 Rowland conversion you will be able to shoot the .460, .45 ACP and .45 AR in the same cylinder without the trouble or added expense for another cylinder
 
When reloading .45 AR I just use a taper crimp the same as I use for my
.45 ACP.

I have loaded bullets up to 270 grains without any problem in my model 1988 and 1989 S&W's.

Sight adjustment was most likely necessary though! ;)

I load 240gr LSWC bullets in the 45ACP and use moonclips that leave the 4" tube of my M625JM @ 1150fps. The shape of that bullet is indicative of the fact that they are only for that firearm as they will not chamber in any of my semi autos.

The load is a book load, albeit, from an older manual.
