    Default Need a good LITE load for 45 LC w 200gr RNFP

    I need a good safe light load for my daughters 45 LC SAA coboy revolvers.
    I use Clays and Trail Boss. Could possibly use other powders if necessary for a really sweet load.
    If it is not Kosher to post load data please PM or email me.
    Thanks in advance.

    It's OK to post data, but it is usually pointless because you have to start at START and work up anyway regardless. You don't often find two guns that both do best with the same load. The real question is: Which powder does your revolver prefer with very light loads? That is one we cannot answer. Ask your revolver. Try what you have on hand first and see what you get for groups, then try Unique and Bullseye next if they don't work for you. BEYE has an excellent rep with light loads in many other cartridges, but I have never tried it in .45LC as I was more interested in hotter hunting loads with heavier bullets when I was loading it.
