Seeing the price of ammo has made me opt to reload. I already reload 308 and 45acp.
My questions... Will 45acp dies work? And projectiles seem to be almost as much as ammo. Will 45acp projectiles work?
Gun is a Ruger American with a SiCo Hybrid.
I appreciate the assistance in curing my ignorance.
Welcome Aboard OM;
Yes to projectiles but choose wisely and
no to dies. Get a good set like Hornady New Dimension dies. Resist
cheaping out on your dies. Their cost can be distributed over a lifetime of reloads.
I do not shoot a bolt action 450b, so I'm of little help with recipe recommendations for one. There are however, plenty of members here who do. If you just want "blammo ammo", the 230gr FMJ's work and their affordable. Usually, as the price goes up on bullets, the performance does likewise.
