Comment / question:
I recently purchased a new Super Redhawk Toklat .454 Casull. Like everyone else, I did some research on the internet regarding loads for this revolver. I read a lot of info saying this gun performs best when used with 325 gr. and under bullet weights. Can you share any information with me regarding this? I know all guns are different, but can you recommend any preferred loads?
Response:
We use 300 grain ammo at the factory.
All of our Firearms are designed to handle all US Industry Standard Ammunition made to SAAMI Spec including +P. We cannot recommend using the 45 Colt +P in our guns as it is not a SAAMI cartridge.
If you have specific questions as to whether a type of ammunition meets SAAMI specs. We recommend you contact an ammo manufacturer such as Federal at 800-322-2342.
We do not recommend using +P+ it is not to saami specs. Stick with US made, brass cased, Boxer primed ammunition. Thank you for your email
