I got my son a Blackhawk in 45 Colt a few years ago and he loved it til he had to pay a small fortune for the bullets. I already had a mold for casting 45acp and had him get a few hundred shells from Midway on sale and started loading, have since added a 255 wfn for hunting, but the little 195's with cowboy loads are a joy to fire and work in my ROA with the R&D cylinder. I loaded him some Ruger only loads with the 255's; he still has about 75 of the 100 that I sent him, says he's saving them for large game, and "send some more plinkers"...
