There are "cowboy" loads and there are "cowboy" loads. For instance, Ten-X sells .45 LC in five different loads. I buy the 200 gr. lead flat nose. Magtech sells cowboy .45 LC loaded with 250 gr. that generate 761 FPS and a 100 yd trajectory of 8.3". That ain't no weak round! The difference I see is price. Cowboy loads usually cost a bit less.
But, there are those bird shot cowboy loads used to bust balloons while riding a horse. Then there are those with wax bullets.
Yeah, those cowboy shooters go a bit overboard, but I'm a American Civil War reenactor so there days when I might look a bit funny at a McDonalds too. Be thankful that there are so many of us who do this stuff. It keeps the industry interested in supplying reproductions of these fine old weapons.
