Ruger SA Question
I havn't fit one, but I did buy a 45 vaquero birdshead. you'll love it! I also load Sierra 185gr JHP and Win 230gr ball in mine. I use 11.5 and 10.5gr of W-231 for about 1000fps. Crimp them as good as you can and you shouldn't have any trouble. If you go with too hot a load they may try and slip during recoil. I have found that W-231 works really well in these loads. I tried a bunch of other powders with these bullets and had a lot of inconsistencies in the loads. KN
