Guys,

Any good suggestions for me to put in my new Sig P250 chambered in .45? I would like some recommendations for HD that would work well in protecting my family. Sure I could go out and grab a box of HP's but I would like to hear brand and grain suggestions.

Sorry for the questions, but I have been shooting 9mm's for 10 years and decided to step up with the big boys.

I prefer the 185 or 200 grain +p varieties. YMMV

I tend to stay with the 230gr. loads. Regular or +P, I don't think it really matters in a .45. I like Federal HST's...

Split ticket here. Inside my home, the .45s are loaded with Winchester 185 gr Silvertip for reduced penetration. When I leave the house, Federal 230 gr Hydra-Shoks are in the guns.

I believe that your training and practice with the firearm, along with knowing that your firearm can 'effectively eat' the ammo you have chosen (any brand or weight that has been proven for your weapon) is far more important than if you should select 230 gr over 185 gr, or Hydra Shok over Speer Gold Dot.

I agree with you, as I training once a week, but gaining knowledge from others is priceless.

For an example, I was at the range last week and a guy noticed my nice groups and then saw that I was collecting my brass. He asked me if I was reloading .223, and I told him not yet, but I will be. The next thing I know, the guy goes into major detail of his own years of trial and error with reloading. Now he is sending me all of this information and exact details of materials and exact instructions for his reloads.

Pretty cool guy!

Please take his loads with a healthy does of caution. Beginning reloaders should use the information in published reloading manuals, starting with the minimum loads listed and working up to top loads carefully.

What is a comfortable load in one gun may be too hot for another, especially if one is not using the exact components (including cases) as the other fella.
