Barnes XPB 250 gr in .45 Colt (for Rossi 92)

Post by CaptainFinn »

Hi, guys. A friend at work gifted me several boxes of XPB .45 250 gr bullets. I know these are intended for .454 casull, but I'm hoping they can be utilized as a .45 Colt in one of my Rossi 92's. Anyone have any recipes for this bullet using H110 or Unique? My usual load for both my 92's is the LBT LFNGC 300-gr over 23.5 gr H110 or the 250 XTP with a similar charge.

Sorry, but I don't. I suggest Hodgdon's website for the H110 and a 250 grain bullet. Speer might have something for you, also. I would expect the Rossi to do a fine job with that bullet due to the increased velocity out of a rifle barrel.
