Hi, I am a new member. I have been handloading for hunting purposes for quite few years. I shoot both rifle and handgun, hunt with both as well. I load 22-250, 270, 7mm Rem Mag, 308 win, 338 win mag, 30-30, 44 mag, 45 colt, and 454 casull. I have loaded other cartridges in the past but either no longer shoot or have the weapon.
My newest weapon is a Super Redhawk in 454 casull, had it for close to 2 years. Still looking for optimum load. The best I have encountered 250 grain Hornandy xtp at 1562fps. I can shoot it accurately without a lot of punishment. I am using 21.8 grains N-105. I have tried hotter loads but I cannot take the punishment, and my accuracy suffers.
Was told about H-110 and Little Gun haven't tried them yet.
Looking forward to hearing from others.
JM
