Source for 45 Colt 260 grain Keith Lead SWC

[Dogger]

Multiple sources tell me that the 260 grain Keith lead SWC at 900-1000 fps is an awesome all around load for the 45 Colt.

I have a new Vaquero Bisley that I want to develop some handloads for, but I am not into molding my own lead bullets...

Anyone know where I can buy the bullets already cast, and hopefully already lubed??

And what about reloading dies? Which brand works best with the 45 Colt??

Thanks!!

Not familiar with any 260's but most cast bullet companies have 250 and 255 grain cast available. I use Lee dies, but all companies make them. Unique is a great powder.

Cast Performance offers superlative lead bullets; Beartooth is also superb but way back-ordered.

Suggest 4-die Lyman Deluxe Carbide set, and finish using heavy crimp from Redding Profile Crimp die.

(For heavy loads e-mail direct. Your Bisley is very strong.)

I suggest you try:

Their bullets are around 267 grains, and are very clsoe to the Keith profile. The proprietor, Lynn, seems to be a very nice guy, also.
