New to the forum but I'm wondering if anyone knows where one might purchase the ACA 45 Special brass?
This is the 45 brass that is made to the 45ACP specs with the exception it has a .060 thick 45LC rim on it.
I would like to load and try it in my Taurus Tracker 455 45ACP revolver just for the heck of it.
I'm not unhappy with shooting the 45ACP in "Moon Clips" I'd just like to try them.
I participate in several other forums and thought the singleactions forum looked interesting. Hope to get some good discussions started.

Are you sure you're not talking about the .45 Cowboy Special? And wouldn't ordinary .45 Auto Rim brass work in your Tracker? If you're looking for the Cowboy Special, there've been threads here lately on the availability: a search will turn them up. I bought mine a while back and haven't been shopping lately.

The only thing I have been able to find is loaded ammo. I want brass. 45 Auto Rim will not work in a Taurus Tracker model 455 because the rim is .090 thick. The cylinder will not close. I have emailed American Cowboy Ammo but have received no reply. I may have to buy a box of 50 just to get the brass. It is a little pricey at $39.95 for a box of 50 plus shipping. They are a bit proud of it. |

They will sell empty brass. I believe it is $90 for 250.
