Picked up some Trail Boss for some plinking loads. What is your favorite or most useful powder for hunting loads in the 45 colt?
Have been thinking 2400 or unique.
These loads will be used in the Redhawk I got off layaway last week.

Had good luck with Unique.

Both of those are good. Unique is not a magnum powder

but it is very useful, good performance range in .45 Colt. Lots of options. I maxed out on capacity with AA1680 and a 300 gr. cast bullet at 1000 fps but fantastic accuracy! I had not tried it before. Tons of .45 Colt data around.

I like Power Pistol with the 270 SA SWC

My favorite load of all ive tried. Its not insane or anything, just a good solid heavy hitter. I love Unique and Herco for standard loads and Bullseye for pusswhips. I cast all my bullets of lead from my range bunkers, powder coat them and shoot them.

H110 or W296 for heavy loads Hi skor 700x for

Unique, 2400 and H110/296.

Recently I've been trying a little of Vit's N110 and I like it, except for the price and availability.
