Help reloading .45 Colt (+P)
I've just bought a .45 LC and will start reloading, mostly +P rounds. I'm having trouble finding out which dies I need (RCBS). Do I use a regular shell holder or an extended? And which one do I get? RCBS lists all their holders, but does not tell you which is for what caliber!
Do I follow the same proceedures as with rifle ammo? Clean & lube case, decap, etc?
Can I safely reuse factory brass for such high pressures?
I am ordering some Starline but do have soem factory brass also.
Any suggestions on powder(s) also. I'm leaning towards the Alliant 2400. The only thing I'm sure of is using a Nosler &/or Hornady bullet and Winchester LP primers.
Why offer .451, .452, .454?
Mostly . . . dies? . . . proceedures? . . . loads?
Yes....I have a gun that is safe for +P. Redhawk.
