First - some time back - 14-18 months, maybe a tetch longer, Alliant Powder had some load data posted for the 7.62 x 25 Tok. round, and I believe that the data included Power Pistol. Anyway, I'm trying to find a copy of that old data, or for that matter, ANY data that uses Power Pistol, Unique, H110, Blue Dot - anything EXCEPT AA powders, since I aint got any. Can anyone help ?
Second - I get these wild-assed ideas, sometimes they actually make sense to me. That's when I worry.. I have one of the Super Comanche single-shot handguns that fires 45 Colt and .410 shotshells. Obviously, this isn't a silhouette-grade gun, but it is a fun little shooter. I know that accuracy is seriously degraded when shooting the 45 Colt round, due to the almost 2 inch jump that the bullet has to make before encountering the rifling. So, I wondered if anyone out there had tried using 460 S&W brass or 444 Marlin brass, with a light load and some kind of wadding to keep the powder tight to the web of the casing to overcome the "jump" to the rifling ? With the huge capacity of these cases, it might even be necessary to use magnum primers to ensure full ignition.
Thanks in advance to any responders.
