Tried doing the search thing, but my key words were too common, so here goes...
I've got a Winchester Model 94 in 45 Colt. Looking at the hotter loads section in my Speer Manual it cautions to use them only in Ruger Vaqueros, Redhawks (IIRC) or TC Contenders. (But not in a S&W mod 25???)
Would these higher pressure loads be safe in my rifle? I think they probably would, but thought I'd better ask. I'm looking for info for 250 gr plated bullets and 296 or 231 for powder. I'd never load any hotter than about 95% of these loads anyway, and then only after working up a little at a time using my chrono.
Any help would be appreciated!
