.45 Hawken shoot today

Ed's 350gr HPs (sized correctly) and 70gr of real black should be a fantastic load for a 1-30.
I do know of a source for fairly cheap custom sized dies. $25

Thanks GM - but shooting both his 350s and his 465s, they both shot the same. But the difference in impact was significant. You could hear the 465s hit the dirt pile behind the target with a very audible thump and you could see a much bigger cloud of dust than any of the other bullets.
I like that bone crushing power of a heavy bullet.

Ron's water jug test with the 350's convinced me they "just might" do the job. I've got some coming from Ed. I want to see how much flatter shooting they are as compared to the 465's.

They both shoot great in my 1-20 though.
