I am looking for some data for H110 and the RCBS 270gr(cast 280 from WW) SAA. It is going in my Navy Arms 92 with a 24" Octagon barrel. I want to run it at about 1100 to 1200 fps. I called Hodgon but they are closed already. Any ideas where I might can find some data?

Steve,

Steve's pages has one powder charge range of 17.2 to 19 gr of H110 for a 300 gr bullet in a rifle. Sorry, but's all I could find.

As I think more about this, H110 pretty much wants to run towards upper pressures. Not sure if running your 1100 to 1200 fps is possible, advisable or safe.

Alan

Do a search over on the Handloader magazine website for an artical specifically on that bullet loaded to the three common pressue levels for the 45 Colt. I have a copy on my laptop but have no way of getting it onto this machine. Great info on a great bullet. I buy mine from Montana Bullet Works.

I did look through my old Handloader Magazines and found an article where they used the 270gr RCBS SAA bullet in a variety of 45 Colt handguns and copied some of their load data. There was three different pressure load levels, it must be the same article. Looks like as close as I can get to the 1100-1200 fps is about 1400 fps with H110 without going below starting data which is alright with me (I already tried some in my rifle). Thanks for the info guys.
