Loading the 45-60
Posted: Sat Nov 10, 2012 11:48 pm
I am looking into loading the 45-60 cartridge for a Vintage Winchester 1876 and had a few questions for those who know the cartridge. I read on the internet, so it must be true, that if I can't find .45-60 brass I can trim .45-70 brass from 2.105 to 1.89 and use it for .45-60. Will .45-70 dies work too? Is this internet info anywhere near correct?? I don't have any manuals handy, as I'm out of town at the moment, and need to know what sort of supplies I might need while I'm here in Tulsa, and, or, how much study should I do before I even begin. I do not want to risk any damage a $6,000 antique, but would like to learn how to craft loads for it. Any help from those who have experience with this round would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
