ParaLarry Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Long loaded for 1911 ramped barrels seem to work best at 1.180; both my Para/Schuemann P-16 for Limited and Caspian/Kart for Single Stack run best at 1.180. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnr88 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I had a new 6" Cameron that would not take long loads. I had to have the lead ring cut deeper. As you work up your load make sure it is not bumping up against the lans. Before I had the lead ring recut I loaded to 1.150 after I loaded to 1.185.

StraightUp_OG Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yeah I would hit up Eddie or Tony at Camerons. Tony is AZGunnut here on the he forums and Eddie is GMEddie here if you want to pm them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symbolmatt Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 So I spoke to Eddie from Cameron Customs and he told me that for my setup use 1.175 - 1.185 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaster113 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 If I recall correctly they recommended an oal of 1.180, but I was getting the occasional failure to feed in my 6" Camerons gun with 165 grain BBI molys at 1.180 oal. I reduced the oal to 1.170 with the molys and its all good now. The gun is 100% with Zeros and Berrys plated at 1.180. I guess it depends on the bullet.
