Hi All,

I'm looking for loads with heavy bullets for my FA in .454 Casull and my Gary Reeder custom in .50 AE.

For a 360 gr bullet in .454 casull

For a 385 gr bullet in .50 AE

Thanks for you input.

Big Bore

I shoot an LBT LWNGC hardcast 355 gr. bullet out of my FA 454 10". Using 31.5 gr. (max is 32.0 gr.) of H110 I am getting 1691.3 fps with 2.75" groups at 150 yards. Recoil is stout and it is near max, so work up carefully. I am using Win brass and CCI SRM #450 primers. The cases fall from the chambers of my revolver under the own weight.
