Go to http://www.castperformance.com and look up their load data while there read the gun blast info on the Bisley.Here's more info Buffalo Bore ammo.

Look at the cast performance site, plus John Linebaugh's website I think has some, but I can't remember what it is- sixguns.com or sixgunner or something to that effect.

Are you sure you can load this bullet in a sixgun? I am not sure it will fit in the cylinder or have enough clearance. I think this bullet may have been intended for the .454 and not really the .45 Colt. Just my thoughts on this subject. Wink

I woulds use the 18gr as a max. & work up.
