45 acp and bullseye

[m1978]

wow, this stuff is much better for my 1911 norc than unique.

anybody else find this? what other powders are good in the 1911 ?

 

[ffgats]

for light loads -N310, for action shooting and power factor is an issue-n320.

 

[bobsonofbob]

Winchester 231

Hodgdon Clays works very good. Fills up the case, no double charging. 4.5gr under a 200gr lead SWC works good for me!

 

[RePete]

I'm loading 5.0gr Bullseye with the 230 RN CMJ.

I works for my revolver and my auto.

The first pound I powder that I ever bought was Bullseye and I still have some of it - meaning that I never had much luck. Since then, I've gone though pounds of Unique, Herco, WW231, HP38. For me - All great in the .45 ACP

 

[X-man]

My favorite range load for my 1911s? 5.0grs of Bullseye with my own 230gr cast RN bullet. Accurate and uber reliable all day long & cost effective to shoot! Now if I could only stop losing brass!

I like bullseye also but recently my shop was out so I tried some 700x.
5.4grn 700x with 200grn lswc bullet (this is a max load) is very accurate out of my Norc 1911a1.

 

[WithoutWarning]

Yeah, I'm wanna give Bullseye a go after I run out of
Titegroup.
How does Bullseye compare to TG, anyone ever loaded both ?
(and no, I don't mean at the same time. . .)

Bullseye is my favourite powder for .45 ACP - 4.5 to 5.0 with a 200 gr SWC

 

[m1978]

4.8 grains worked good , but 5 was quite impressive.

in my norc unique was a complete let down

 

[Cocked&Locked]

heck I load 9, 45 and 38 with bullseye, why keep a bunch of other powder around when one does great for paper punchin'?

 

[Silverback]

I got a great deal on two 8 pound kegs of Bullseye a few years so I use it for all but magnum handgun loads. I only have about half of one left now but it works great for me with target loads in 25 ACP, .380, 9mm, 40S&W, 38 Spl and 45 ACP.

You guys are a bunch of old farts using that ancient powder. Switch to some of the modern powders. There has been a lot of progress since the introduction of Bullseye powder. And to help you out I will buy your old cans of Bullseye, at a discount of course.

But none better!

I have always had very good results with Win231. Now sold as HP38. Same powder just now made by Hodgson.
