Para14Bud Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Looking for suggestions on loads for 45acp for shooting local Steel Challenge matches. I currently load with Solo 1000 and W231 powders.

DougCarden Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 put a 10lb spring in the gun, then start with a Berrys 185Hollowbase RN bullet, profile with 230gr appearance, but only 185 grain. Start at around 4.5gr W231 and go up until gun functions with 10lb spring, then add .02gr, then check for accuracy. You might need to load up to 140-150PF to get good accuracy. I dont know about the Solo....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck D Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I know it's not Solo or WW231 but I've been working up a load for My Glock 21...I plan on using it in Production Division. I've been workin g with WW Super Target and a 185g jacketed (Hornady XTP) bullet. I started out a 4.4g and settled on 4.6g. Makes a 142 to 145 p.f. and groups 2 to 2.5 inches from a stock Glock barrel at 25 yards from a rest. Hopefully that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
