I am wanting to reload 45 Colt with "Ruger Only" type +P loads. I have been very careful reloading pistol calibers before and have been below the maximum levels in them. Never had any problems. I have been away from it for awhile when prices/availability got weird.
I'm planning on using H110, Hornady XTP Bullets 250 Grain JHP, Hornady brass, Winchester primers.
My 1892 lever is okay with the +P loads.
Could someone give me a link or a review of signs in the brass, etc. to look for that indicate when I'm pushing the limit. Aside from working up to R/L manual levels, any other advice?
I have read many like 18.5 gr of the H110 for a +P load with this bullet.
TIA
