Hi! I'm looking for any information on reloading a .45 Win Mag cartridge. It is for use in a Wildey.
You remember the Wildey I'm sure. Charles Bronson telling the nice old Jewish man "Wildey is here" as he carries a big wrapped box over to the table. Later one of my favorite lines as CB is dumping a huge amount of powder into a big cartridge case saying "Nothing is too good for our friends". Well that's the gun, and this one shoots the .45 Win Mag. I just don't have any reloading data for it. ------------- Just Jim Keep your eyes peeled |

Many thanks CB900F! I used to own a CB400F. Does that make us related?
The sound that thing made between 9K and 11.5K would raise the hair on the back of my neck! Wish I had it back. Thanks again ------------- Just Jim Keep your eyes peeled |

'Zonie; Yup, we are now related. However, since you don't have the bike in hand as it were, it's at least once removed. Was yours piped? Sweet music in any case. The CB900F is long gone, got punched out to over 1000cc when I started racing it. Yosh pipe & Mikuni VM33 smoothbores. The LAR Grizzley is a 1911 on steroids, right? 900F ------------- Birth certificate!? He don't need no steenkink birth certificate!! |
