45 LC reloads

[TonyT]

When I shot a 45 Colt revolver I used rail VBoss powder at the lower leveels suggested on Hodgdon's website. Accurate with mild recoil.

I bought my first single action revolver last week. For you guys that roll your own 45 LC for cowboy action shooting, what's your favorite load?

Hard to argue with the BP loads: I've found around 33 grains by weight of black powder, or equivalent volume of subs works well with no filler needed. Subs will NOT give you the BOOOOOOM and flame of the real stuff. They sound like smokeless, just with a lot more smoke.
If I bother with the smokeyless stuff, I've always used TiteGroup or TrailBoss. TrailBoss will get erratic if you load down on the bottom end, go with middle or high loads for consistency. Accurate XMP5744 is also a good choice, but it's sure gotten expensive lately.
