Been shooting a KIRST .45Colt conversion cylinder in my r.o.a. for several years.... w231 and of late 6grains of TiteGroup behind a 255rnfp home cast .
(I scored a 4 pound jug of titegroup) from local CABELAS...
cylinder I chose was stainless as I on rare occasion shoot b.p. in the 45 cases.
Again money well spent.
as a side note,the roa in .45 shoots as well as my omsbh shooting .44 specials.
.45Colt conversion cylinder in Ruger old army.
Hello, W. C.
Welcome to the forum
How are you loading the BP rounds?
roa= Ruger Old Army?
omsbh= Old Model (3 screw) Super Blackhawk?
Greetings AL, Thank you for the welcome,but I have been around for a couple years.......
yes, ROA is RUGER OLD ARMY
OMSBH is OLD MODEL SUPER BLACKHAWK.
I shoot 35 grains Goex 3F,topped with a home cast/wheel weights/ .45 cal. LEE 255+ Round Nose Flat Point projectile.sized to .453''
smokey and feels pretty stout..as accurate as .44 specials in the SBH.
smokeless in .45,i am using 6.0-6.3 gr. titeGroup....
I just traded the omsbh to my shooting partner for a like new Winchester 88 in rare .284 Winchester.
I acquired the omsbh that had a cyl. of full house norma 44mag thru it and mabe a dozen 44 specials. ser# 4120. had it several years.... wanted that model 88 for about 12 years.... friend finally agreed to trade.....heck,i still shoot the .44 AND have a new rifle too......life is good.
