    Default Need a .45 colt+p load for 230 grain

    Im in need of a.45 colt+p load for my TC using 230grain jhp and 2400 powder.Im figuring around 18.0 to 19.0 grains,but I dont have an exact match for a 230 grain, everything im finding is either for 225 grain, or just standard pressure loads.Does anyone have any resourceful info.

    Sierra shows a 240 JHC starting at 17.9 and maxing out at 20.3 gr. of 2400. That said the rule of thumb is reduce the starting load by at least 10%.
