4756 in 45

Anybody user 4756 in 45?

I use it in super 38 for my open gun and for some powder puff loads in 40 for my son and it works great. But I've not seen much if anything about using it in 45.

Yep! I need to know the same info!

I used it WAY long ago (>20 years), when I started reloading. It works, and you won't have any problem making the PF. There was a lot of muzzle flash. I don't remember how the accuracy was. I'd personally rather use something more suited to .45, but if you just want to play with it, it's safe.

adding to the above post.

I used it and blue dot for bowling pin loads with 230 grain lead bullets

seems the 4756 was cleaner and took less powder to get the same speed
