Looking for any load info for .45 cal fast (1:20) twist barrels. Currently shooting Parker 250 gr. BE & Barnes 195 out of 1:30. May have lead on the fast twist barrel. Heard good things about cutting edge, maximus bullets.

Forgot to mention, have the Lehigh conversion bolt & plug (Love it).
Using Blackhorn & harvester sabots with the 195's.
Seems likely the heavier/longer bullets offered now should raise eyebrows in the .45 world. ??

My Mountaineer 40/1-20 shoots one inch or better at 200 yards using 84 grains (weighed) BH209, pushing a Fury Star tip 225gr in a smooth blue Harvester sabot. Awesome load.

Thanks Greg, exactly what I was looking for! Options for finding the "honey" load. Didn't know anything about Fury bullets. Two thumbs up.

My hunting load this year in mine was 80 grains by volume BH209 behind a 460 grain no excuse conical and a veggie wad. Good for 1" at 100 and really did a number on the buck I shot this fall.
