The plan is to begin shooting Wild Bunch. To that end i just bought my first 1911, a Springfield Defender MilSpec.
I have never owned a 45 anything, and I'd like to get myself a mold. I don't mind the LEE 6 cavity, they do a decent job. I'd like to stick with sizing and lubing with my 4500, and I'm thinking that the TL grooves will probably hold enough grease to get the job done, without leading.
Does anyone have any experience with this bullet?

Winchester Model 12: Hammer down, loading rules.
in Wild Bunch Rules Forum
Posted
I haven't shot Wild Bunch yet, and I have a Winchester Model 12. For CAS I shoot a Model 1897.
I'm a bit puzzled on the technique to load and bring the shotgun to the stage. First, with a 1897 it's pretty easy to lower the hammer on an empty chamber. But on a Model 12, lowering the hammer is done by pulling the trigger. Is that not a dry fire at the loading table.
Can someone run through the steps followed to use a Model 12, starting from walking to the loading table with the shotgun action open, cleared.
