Marshal Cogburn SASS # 8454 Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 I just found out that Ten-X doesn't offer their Cowboy reloads anymore. Any other companies reload customer supplied brass?
Blacksmith Jim #68489 L TG Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 What caliber are you inquiring about, I know of 1 in Arizona and 1 in Texas.
DeaconKC Posted August 2, 2020 Posted August 2, 2020 I don't know if they will reload your brass, but Choice Ammunition makes light recoiling cowboy ammo.

GA Arms has not had anything to sell for some time. They closed for 7-10 days last week to catch up on their back orders. They quit loading some time back due to a lack of components. I believe it was basically primers.

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 The thing is with "Cowboy" ammunition is, "What is it?" I have purchased ammo marked "Cowboy" on the box and have found it to be basically the same ammo as their regular stuff, just with a lead bullet and in a different box. Most notably the Winchester cowboy ammo falls into this category, but so have some others I've found at random over the years. In fact, I was asked by one pard at my very first shoot what was a using, because it seemed to be way too hot. "Winchester Cowboy Loads" I responded. He just shook his head and said, "Not a good idea." On the other hand, last year I discovered HSM Cowboy Action Cartridges when I unexpectedly needed some extra ammo at a shoot out in Nevada. Here's a pic of the box. This is actually .44 Magnum, and even though it's factory ammo, it's downloaded like typical CAS loadings. In fact, it's almost identical to my personal reloads in this caliber. So much so that I pulled one apart to see what powder is uses. To my surprise, it was NOT Trailboss, because like I said, the performance seemed identical to my own reloads. They use Starline brass. Here's their website... https://hsmammunition.com/cowboy-action/ Good stuff, and it really wasn't all that expensive as commercial ammo goes.

Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 MC, I understand your desire to use a powder that has worked for you in the past. I use Unique in my 44 mag reloads for WB and prefer it in that cartridge. However, there are other powders that will give satisfactory results in large revolver cases and some of these are available. When reloading components are in short supply we have learned to shoot what is available. I also use American Select and it is still available. Hodgdon lists 45 Colt loads for IMR Target and its on sale at Powder Valley. Try another powder. You may discover a new favorite.

Nate Kiowa Jones #6765 Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 For years there were commercial reloaders that offered CAS ammo. Some offered 1.5" long loaded Cowboy leveraction 38's. I directed my rifle customer to "T" ammo for his 1.5" cowboy 38's. But, Roy retired so I was recommending Ammo Direct. Well, they are out of business now Here is the source if you want long loaded 38's for your levergun. Contact CUSTOM AMMO & RELOADING SERVICES,LLC 817-326-3855 Email; landjb7@charter.net Larry Benningfield 3110 Marble Court Granbury, Tx 76049. they sell this ammo and will also reload your brass.
