Winchester WST 45 Colt Loads for Wild Bunch

Sometimes when there is no load data for a popular powder in a common round there is a reason.  This is why load data is not supposed to be on the wire.  You have some velocities but no pressure data.

I'd use a heavier bullet in .45 Colt for WB.  The minimum slug weight allowed is 180 grains.  If you have variations in weight of your bullets, you could be disqualified just on bullet weight.  Chronographing and bullet weight checking is kinda common in WB.

 

Your load  numbers should be removed from your post, especially as folks don't have a lot of way to check that they are reasonable.  Don't post loads that have all the types and weights - that is enough to assemble a load.

 

However, I've shot a ton of WST in .45 Colt rifle for both WB and Cowboy based on some lesser known data sources and a lot of my own testing, and if you want my load suggestion, PM me.

 

Good luck, GJ
