45lc for deer
What's everyone's thoughts on hunting with 45lc, not ruger only loads? 250grain projectile at around 900fps enough?

45lc updats
So after switching brass, adjusting crimp and increasing powder, im getting more consistent speeds as well as accuracy out of my loads. Thanks everyone for all of the advice. Now to work on a hunting load, have 4 separate powder measurements made up, water tested one and got terrible expansion out of a speer deep curl 250g. That was my lowest charge though, so we'll see how the rest go next weekend.

45 LC
What's everyone's go to bullet for range plinking? I've been using hsm 250g rnfp, but it doesn't seem to go too fast. Go-to powders? Loads?

Newer reloaded here. Does anyone have advice for getting more consistent velocities out of my hand loads? My normal loads are 250g lead rfn with 6.5 grains of powder, I get anywhere between 640-720 fps. Is that normal? Thanks in advance. Loading 45 long colt btw.

Going to be trying to get a whitetail this year with my el patron 45 colt this year. Playing with hand loads to get something dialed in. Wish me luck!
