Pistol Load Workups . . . . part one . . . . a response to Nathan @ The Reloading Press
CharlieBrassStuffer
Nathan over at The Reloading Press asked about the methodology various members use in our handloading schemes as we each do our ‘load workups’…this is, in several parts my way of doing a pistol or revolver load workup. Of course each platform requires different considerations, so…there’s no ‘hard and fast’ method I can explain in this series of videos that would cover all the pistol/revolvers out there. Here in this video the platform is the 1911 in .45ACP and since I’ve been loading for that platform for many years I have a specific method of working up loads with that pistol. Before I get everyone confused, just watch the video and I’ll do my best to explain myself…
If I haven’t answered any specific questions you have Nathan…hang in there, there’s a lot more information to talk about in these next several videos before we get to the 900 FPS threshold I’m loading for…
“As usual boys…I’ll close this part with, Have a good summer & practice every chance you get! Be careful, watch your 6 and don’t hurt yourselves!”
