.45 Colt.... S&W Mountain Gun... Ultra Dot.... carried in a chest pack.... 280 grain cast bullets at about 950 fps...
The majority of the slugs end up in a 3 ft diameter chunk of white pine out in the back yard... the plan is to keep shooting it for a year or so then split it... burn it down in a campfire and reclaim the lead to recast....
Loaded to this pressure I'm thing the 1000 Starline brass will out last me so... 3 Cents for a primer.... have not done the math but I'm thinking only a few Cents for powder....so ballpark about the same cost as .22 ammo.... all that just makes me smile
