Fort Reno Kid Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 (edited) Howdy Pards I always thot 45ACP and 45 Cowboy Special were essentially the same length. Google search was inconclusive but the Starline website indicates that they are essentially the same. Depression-era Grandparents and Parents drilled into me “waste not, want not” and to always repurpose supposedly discardable items. Have shot 45 Colts for decades. Cases are durable but eventually develop splits. As long as the splits are small and manageable, I save ‘ em up. When I have a bunch, I take ‘em to a buddy with a lathe. There we trim ‘em to 45 Schofield (small splits) or 45 Cowboy Special for slightly longer splits. I use 45ACP reloading dies for the Specials (with appropriate shell holder). 45 Colt dies will work for Schofield cases but I wound up buying Schofield dies. They work better. Overkill? Perhaps. But I shoot a lot of 45’s and that extends the useful life of the brass by a not inconsequential amount. And it’s very possible the time may come when I order Cowboy Special brass from Starline Keep on the sunny side Adios Fort Reno Kid Edited September 25 by Fort Reno Kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, 45 Cowboy Special, is a straight-sided rimmed case that takes the same 452 bullet as a 45 Colt ACP cases are rimless, and headspace on the case mouth. They usually take a 451 bullet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
