Brian Pearce on the 45 Colt +P...

[singleaction]

Brian mentions in this article that AAC-9 and H110/WW296 should be avoided for loads in the 23k psi level due to this relatively low pressure causing issues with reliable ignition. That being said, he published 23k loads with both powders in his initial review of the NM FLATTOP 45 Colt, in Handloader NO.275 December 2011. I wonder if he learned a thing or two in the last 10 years?

Maybe someone would be kind enough to print and post the article for us here???

That would be awfully nice of them

I'm not sure that's a great idea due to copyright infringement on such new material.

Probably best just to snag an issue of Handloader Magazine.

Not trying t personality attack or disparage anyone, but consider this:

Call me a spoilsport, negative ninny, self righteous S.O.B. or whatever, but in order for good publications to remain profitable and stay in business, they need sales. I’m not necessarily against information being posted on-line, but how hard is it to spend a few bucks for a magazine? You would be supporting the folks who work hard to bring us all of this great information, and not just stealing it. I’m as guilty as anyone at times,  I must admit, but we all see a day coming when these great magazines just can’t keep the doors open. The new Handloader just showed up at my local book store, and it’s available online from Wolfe Publishing for less $.

Singleaction, I agree 100%. I still can't fathom any Handloader not subscribing to the magazine.

I'm notoriously "frugal" and subscribing is the cheapest route to getting tons of research. But, I'll pick up cans and sell them for scrap before I let it go...

I just signed up for the online subscription. Didn't realize it would be so easy! Lots of reading to do now.

I've let a few go too. I know publications struggle, but some of this is self inflicted. It's just pure crap they print.

I swear some of the magazines are 75% advertisements and the other 25% is just little, unresearched opinions that amount to nothing.

I'm down to Handloader/Rifle, Rifle Shooter and Shooting Times. I'm prone to trim it more. Shooting Times is on shakey ground...

Good reminder for me to renew too. Don’t quite know how the subscription lapsed.

Honestly i didn’t miss them until now. Don’t know what that says…

I use LoadData extensively…probably nearly daily. This load data is already there. I do like reading some of the articles though. I usually get them twice as my lovely wife buys me the annual Handloader CD every year for Christmas. The print ones are nicer but make a mess in the long run.

Ordered the current issue for $10 too. No place within an hour that I can find has it on the rack.

And so it goes….

NEXT UP ON THE KEEP OR NOT KEEP DECISION IS SHOOTING TIMES, THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I WOULD NOT CONSIDER CANCELLING NOW I DON'T KNOW AS IT IS ON "SHAKEY GROUND". BTW I HAVE NO PLANS ON CANCELLING MY GUNS AND AMERICAN HANDGUNNER SUBSCRIPTIONS.

[Encore64]

I meant Shakey Ground as to whether or not I keep subscribing to it. Wasn't a reference about their stability.

The rest are history. There's just nothing in them except advertisements.

I’d like to purchase a printed copy of Volume #337 for Pearce’s article on the 45 Colt +P information but it’s not available anywhere near me. And, I’ve unable to figure out where/how to purchase the single copy online (IT knucklehead, here). Does anyone have a link?
