Gunsmoke55 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Anyone have favorite site for published load data for WST in 45 ACP? Plan to load some 200 gr SWC plated using WST which is said to be clean burning for 45 ACP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsmoke55 Posted March 5, 2023 Author Share Posted March 5, 2023 One caveat… I do not need to make major power factor, just want to plink with sufficient powder load to get clean non sooty cases using my 200 gr SWC plated bullets. Starting my project with plated X-tremendous bullets. Later, will buy some Missouri or Bayou coated bullets, probably 200 gr RN. Long range goal is to collect up the stuff: a mold or two, handle, lead, tin, etc., to roll my own…without breaking the bank. I have the Lyman 25 furnace which I got….then pandemic hit. Still hope to get to casting my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Phil Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Plated and coated bullets are recommended to load with lead bullet data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
