Need a .45 Golden Sabre reload recipe
 
I was wondering if anyone here reloads .45 with the Remington .451 diameter 230 gr BJHP Golden Sabre round? I was hoping to find a recipe that duplicates the factory loading/specs.

Thanks!

You will need a chrony to duplicate factory velocity.
Remington does not, and never has published loads for their components.
Use Speer's load for the 230 Gold Dot, and work your way up carefully.

I like the feel of 6.5 grains UNIQUE under 230gr fmj.
never had a problem with that load.

I'm showing a couple loads in my records but keep in mind you should reduce the charges and work up. Accurate Arms powder has had several parent companies over the years and powder lots change (look at differences in max loads published in their yearly load manual between 1999-2007). I don't recall which lot or year of powder these were loaded with.

8.6 gr of AA5 clocked at avg 910 fps at 10' out of a 4 1/8" springfield
and 10.6 of AA7 at avg 912 fps same gun
