I just picked up the gun below and am trying to find loads for +325 gr bullets that are running in the 45 kpsi range. Any folks shooting a 5 shot conversion?

Is that a Bowen, Boxhead?

No, it was built by Competitive Edge Gunworks (Larry Crow). I just picked it up off Gunbroker and won't have it in hand until early August when I move back to Texas from Alberta. Can't wait. Looks a lot like my Bowen 500L Nimrod.

That's what I thought when I saw the picture -- looks very much like your Bowen. Nice!
