Lyman 457191 292 gr results

[Bucks Owin]

Got a chance to shoot this bullet in my .45 NMBH the other day, thought some might find interesting. Thanks to SBH4628 for sending me some sized to .454" :wink: Best ES/SD was with 22.0 grs W296, slightly better accy at 22.5 grs (2.5"). These are doing 1250 fps and firing 25 of 'em was enough for one session for me! For blasting some big angry critter, one could do worse than this bullet! Don't think a steady diet of them would be a good idea though, even in a BH....(had to retighten gripframe screws at the end of the day :shock: ... .............................................................................

You know, I didn't even measure. I just made a dummy round crimped in front groove and since it chambered with a little cyl to spare, I called it good! (Too long for a FA though, I'm sure) I'll get back to ya with an edit later amigo.. :wink:

Anyone tried this bullet in their #1 or #3 Ruger?
