Looking to load some .45 with 230 gr Barry's bullets and Titegroup. Anyone have a recipe that works good for them? Thanks

I've loaded them with 4.6gr of TG w/COL-1.275 Nice smooth load and accurate out of an FNX45.

Thanks Ron. I loaded a few with 4.5 gr and COL-1.25. Gonna give these a try and see how they work out.

I agree. www.hodgdon.com has plenty of load data.

How do you meter your Titegroup. My Chargemaster is out, so I used a Lee dipper

I picked up the Lee breech lock challenger kit. I'm just using the stuff that came in the kit right now. Haven't started to upgrade my reloading stuff yet. I'm sure that after awhile I will want to move up to bigger and better things.

The Lee auto disk works well.

The Lee auto disk works well. Yup, that's what I use. Meters Bullseye and Unique very well, too.
