    Looks like I never followed up with my 8.0gr unique with the 230gr rainier HP. I tried it in my bond arms derringer, Taurus judge 2.5” barrel, cimarron peacemaker, and Ruger SBH. It shot great out of all 4. I was impressed. The best part was that it is absolutely the most accurate 45 colt load I’ve ever shot out of the derringer.

    Ive used that same exact load for many years. Very accurate and low recoil.

    I started with 5.8 grs of Trail Boss, then I backed down to 5.5 grs.

    5.5gr is definitely the sweet spot for me.

    Nice!

    This is my Uberti Remington, the other two are Colt models. I don't have any pictures of them yet. One of them has an extra cylinder for .45 ACP.
