I have a S&W 625 which I bought for my "woods gun". Regarding other calibers and guns I chose the 625 because of it's ability to shoot acp and ar, but the deciding factor was an article in a October 19, 1998 Guns & Ammo special issue called the "Complete Book of the .45", titled "Forgotten Powerhouse" written by Chuck Taylor.
One loading that really caught my attention was the 14.5 grs of 2400 under a 255gr cast swc which he claims is safe to use in the new 625's and supposedly delivers 1,083 fps from a five-inch barrel and shoots inside one inch at 25 meters.
-Does anyone have any experience with the .45ar?
-Has anyone ever used a load similar to the one I've just described?
-What have been your experiences with the .45ar in the "boonies"?
-What is your favorite loading for the .45ar?
-Is a roll-crimp necessary, if so where do I get one for my Dillon RL550B?
-Where do I get #454424 hardcast Keith bullets? I found some 255gr harcast swc's from National Bullet Co., 1,000 for $43.00, is this a good deal?
Thanks for any input.
