Hey guys, I'm gonna start reloading for the 45 colt soon and am interested in making up some all purpose loads (hunting and target) with 300 grain cast bullets at around 1000-1400 fps. Just wondering what powders are recommended. Alliant 2400 and IMR 4227 sound like some good medium burning powder for loading b/w 16 and 20 grains without worrying about forcing cone erosion. any info or experience would be greatly appreciated...
