Just purchased a Ruger Blackhawk in 45LC. I am wondering what bullet diameter, .451 or.452, I should buy to start reloading. I load a lot of 45ACP but these bullets do not have a crimp groove. I use .452 in lead and .451 in jacketed bullets for the 1911 but I am not sure if the dame criteria hols for the revolver in 45LC. Any suggestions are appreciated.
