.45 ACP loadings

Does anyone have a good accurate load for remington 185 gr golden sabre's. Im shooting a Springfield Armory full size 1911.

Step 1: find a reloading manual
Step 2: RTFM (read the f****** manual)

Never trust the Internet for reloading information.
You will be trusting your gun, hands, face, eyes, and possibly your life to some anonymous person with a keyboard.

Manuals and reading is a given! Just wanted to know of any good accurate loads, sorry you did not understand!

 

[llh1956]

Ive been reloading over 20 years.

I have no way of knowing your reloading experience. Your question seemed like a noob question that seems to pop up frequently.

You can always check out different forums on that load. Just google search 185 gr. golden sabre loads....

Thanks guys! I was just looking for anyones pet load that delivered good accuracy with the Rem Golden Sabre 185 bullet as I have used Unique and was wanting to try something different.

my only load is for a 230g, thats with H clays at 3.9 to 4.0 grain, with any primer, not for carry but for ispc load, soft make power factor not much smoke

Most of us can't afford Rem Golden Sabers to try.
6.0gn of Unique is sort of a "magic" load in my guns for several cartridges and bullet weights.
I show 9.5gn of AA5 is a "favorite" load for some with the Rem GS.
For target loads, try Bullseye (4.5gn), AA2 (4.1-4.3gn), Clays (3.7-4.0gn).
For full power loads, try Silhouette, Power Pistol, or HS6.

I like power pistol in the 45 . both 185gr and 230 gr bullets. with the 185 I would start mid 7's and work up . I am running 8.0 which is safe in MY Gun

Clays is what I load 185gr XTPs with, and it works fine for me, never wanted to try loading golden sabers myself, since 99% of my loads for 45acp are strictly target use. I have had great accuracy using Universal clays as well, though the powder is almost never 100% burnt with that powder.

I'm a big fan of Clays too!

I like Win 231 or Bullseye. Load it for 900 fps and it should be GTG.

 

[xring62]

Ive had my most accurate loads with any wt bullet with HP38/win 231,to about 850fps
