That was my thought. The other option was the 460 Rowland as you "should" be able to load down to at least 45 Super levels (possibly down to 45 ACP levels), but also to up to a much higher pressure/velocity. The downside is that you're limited to 460 Rowland brass which is slightly longer than 45 ACP.meles meles wrote:The idea of proofing for .45 Super seems sound ! That way you could fire anything from .45 Super for longer range down to standard sub sonics if you wanted to go the quiet, moderated route...
I can't see myself shooting much 45 Super, but I like having the option of 45 ACP, +P and Super to choose from.
If he's happy then go for it.majordisorder wrote: I'm pretty sure the mag is single stack, the overall length is 5 11/16" and 3/4" wide which to me at least suggests it must (hopefully) be single stack. When I gave the dimensions to the rifle builder he didn't seem overly concerned with the size and said it could be done.
Good idea about proofing for .45 Super, do you know where can you get brass for that in the UK?
As to 45 Super brass you can get it from MidwayUK http://www.midwayuk.com/apps/ebrowse.ex ... 0+***+9014+*** BBTI is a very good site - shows what can be be done with pistol calibre ammunition and a carbine. :shakeshout: I used it quite a bit when I shortened my 357 Winchester. I'm glad they've added some rifle calibres now, makes for a handy reference site.ovenpaa wrote:The site you link makes for fascinating reading and has some videos of the testing as well. A good find and very well worth a look.
