So... Bought a used Ruger RH 45 Colt/45 Auto revolver. Shoots the .454 Colt RN great. Accuracy with 45 ACP is about 2-2.5x larger group. I know the 45 ACP rd has to 'jump' longer to hit the throat, but... I pinned the throats, and they are ~.4535. So figure a bit of jibber jabber down through the throat and then down the bbl (which I suspect is also large/not slugged).
Anyone have a fat 45 225-235 grn RN (or 200-235 SWC) mold that drops WW+2% at .454 they might want to part with?
Expect I will also try a 20:1/30:1/40:1 alloy just to see if it will bump up and fill the throat, all else fails...
