New to the 450 Bushmaster world...Can any of these Bullets be used in 450 Bushmaser?
I have:
Hornady 45 CAL 230gr FMJ-RN
X-Treme Bullets 45 Cal 200gr RN Copper Plated
Berry's 45 Cal 230gr RN (I'm guessing these are copper plated also)
I believe the copper plated bullets have a max velocity around 1500-1600fps from reading and even then that is pushing it.
I Have been using Winchester 296 to load 450 Bushmaster(using Honady XTPMag 240gr that I'm out of). If you can load these what would be a good starting point with this powder?
Thanks!
