45 colt with Lee classic loader using black powder
Always wear safety equipment and it's a good idea to wear a glove in case primer goes off. Be careful !

All the tubes are DR11 which I purchased from manmfireworks... Best place to buy your tubes!
Keep your ammo dry !!

It's cat litter, you can find it in the pet supply area. It must be 100% silica gel.
You did a great job right to the point easy to watch thank you sir
How did you set the bullet seat measurement?
I have a question that you might be able to help me with
I have been doing this for a while now. Also put primer sealer on the primers as well. They can be shot even after a day in a bucket of water if prepared like this
Was there a step missed to flair the cartridge mouth before the powder charge and setting the bullet? The short rod maybe??? It would have made it easier to start the bullet into the top of the cartridge, I think.🤔
"Grain" not "gram"
I would put a piece of 2x4 (or thick leather, rubber, or cardboard) under the die so the anvil won't bang it around.
3:49 250 GRAM bullet? That's 3,858 grains !
Yeah. And it’s a jacketed bullet, not plated.
Wow I never knew it was just this easy… I always thought you needed like a bunch of tools and a special machine to do this but I guess that’s just for the fancy pants guys haha 😂
thanks jack you couldn’t have done a better job.. it was straight and to the point .nuf said 🤙🏻
Have you ever used this to load 45 Schofield,
I started out this way over 46 years ago. If you add a simple balance beam ot electronic powder scale you can tailor your loads using modern smokless powder, just use a good reloading manual. As was mentioned before slightly flare those case mouths, just enough so that the bullet can barely enter the case then load the bullet....crimp and done. Just don't over due that flare, it will over work the brass case.
Great vid, thanks!!!
First time viewing your posts, thank you. 45 Colt is my favorite.
Good instruction video, well done.
I hear you are supposed to use black powder lube on your bullet, and that they actually make black powder bullets with extra deep channels for the lube to sit in. Apparently without the extra black powder lube a few shots bakes crud into the rifling of your barrel that is very hard to clean out. Very good info on how to use a simple single casing loading tool though!
what type of primers do u use for black powder the large cci 300? jw
Incredible video! I love loading 45 colt. Especially simpler ways. Plus black powder 45 colt is almost therapeutic to shoot at the range. Thanks for sharing. I do some 45 colt ballistics tests and ammo reviews on my channel. I even mess around with roundball 45 colt from my open top conversions. Just subscribed to your channel.
Hope you can help me. I purchased a Lee Loader (.45 Colt) and upon opening it, I noticed the Main Body is stamped "LEE - 45 ACP - D2" The kit came with the flaring tool which indicates it is for the 45 colt. Did I receive the wrong Main Body in the kit?
and thank you i just got the 45 colt loader ..I have used the 35 remington
you forgot to flair your brass
I reload .45 Colt this way using Unique, Trail Boss, or Pyrodex. Press your primers in with an arbor press. No pops. Just learned to reload .45 acp with Unique, a little trickier to do. Case mouth tension has to be just right or bullet setback can happen, increasing pressure.
First- Always wear a glove on your left hand while setting the primer (sometimes the primer goes off and it can burn your hand), Second- Flare the case mouth before seating your bullet (you can easily destroy the mouth of the case if you don't!), Third -When sizing the case, turn the head down on the hard surface and tap the die using that soft hammer. this will prevent mutilated cases) I learned these things by experience using the Classic Lee Loader

Thanks for the straight skinny and no frill info. Awesome work sir.
Thank you my man 👍
Great video, but I have 2 questions. 1) do you need a flaring tool before seating the bullet, and 2) is this loader suitable for lever action rifles?? Some say it is not. Thanks
He forgot the flaring tool. He would not need to hit it that hard if he had used the flaring tool. It`s all good in the cowboy world. We are kind to all.Have a great day.
I really enjoy my Lee loaders in 45 acp, 9 km and 38 special. Its relaxing to load this way.
great video no look at me talk for half the video u got straight to it and taught us something quick and fast well done sir
If I could find some primers..........??????
Thank you very much great video ! I just bought a 1873 Colt clone. Been wanting to start reloading my own bullets. 😊
Good job,just ordered the Lee precision 90254 Classic loader 9mm luger,going to try my hand at this,never reloaded a bullet in my life.Now to figure out which powder,which bullet,which primer????? I would like to cast my own bullets one day also,that's probably a whole nother story in this reloading scheme of things.
Have u had any issue on the ammo using the litter
I have the same Lee loader. Today I will doing it for the first time. Thank you.
You forgot to open the case mouth
I would have liked to see the spent primer being removed. Pretty good demo for 45 colt though.
Thanks for the video! But you didn’t show flare part before bullet insert.
Enjoyed the video.
I didn't see any groove lube go in but with a crimp you may not need it how did they fire?
I’ve got the new vaquero 45colt, my ? Is that a pretty standard load for shooting SASS
thank you you saved my pricey 3 inch 000 bucks
Other ? Is how much per bullet are you averaging y reloading
Depends on how you get your gun powder, primers and bullets really. If you buy new premade bullets, gun powder, and primers, you could cut your ammo costs in half or more. If you make your own bullets from lead/lead-alloy could cut that price in half or more again. If you make your own gunpowder, even more savings. Recycle old primer cups and anvils and make your own priming compound from base ingredients, you can shave your cost to near zero. You can spend several days moulding bullets, mixing up gunpowder and primers (carefully on that last part) and reload hundreds if not thousands of your own full power Cowboy cartridges. Or, you can spend time working a job, and spend your hard earned money on a fraction of factory made, underpowered 'cowboy action" plinkers.. You can do it yourself and save loads of dosh, all it takes is time, a little Cowboy Chemistry and a willingness to do it yourself. ^.-.^
@@Beuwen_The_Dragon And it’s a whole lot of satisfaction and fun.
Great video, I just got a 45colt and I’ll be buying one of these
I would ask if you can come up with how much are you saving on reloading versus just buying 50 rounds at the cheapest price if possible, Thanks
Well if you do things right, you can reload for as cheap as it costs to get/make powder and new primers/ingredients for diy priming compound.. Melt down lead to Mould your own bullets, buy or make gunpowder, get new/or recycled primers, and a few hours to kill, you can stock up on a pretty supply of full power Black Powder cartridges for a fraction of the cost/time of working to buy new underpowered factory 'cowboy" plinkers... ^.-.^
Great video. Thanks for not jabbering for an hour like so many other youtubers and getting down to business. Subscribed
SPIRITUAL AWAKENINGS thank you I left out a few things ... sorry ... I also hate when people think they have to talk forever ... have a great day !!
Use the flaring tool in kit to bevel the cartridge before adding your powder, helps the bullet to start wen your seating it.
Hey Jack Here a tip keep your hand up top of the rod not over the cylinder had one or two go off scares the crap out of you . LOL Have fun
That’s pretty cool. Hammering a primer in makes me cringe a bit though 🤣🤣🤣
Deburr the case neck, will ease bullet seat and let the crimp collapse a little more. Fingernail polish will seal the primer from the outside. Nice video, thanks a lot!
Glad you love it I got hooked too I jumped right in with Lyman’s brass smith 8 turret press kit never reloaded before but glad I got what I got I’ve done 400 rounds of 30 30 so far picked up a 1851 colt navy in 44 and am now thinking of 1860 colt army with a conversion cylinder and the will start reloading black powder like you get the Lyman gear or something similar it’s an investment for the rest of your life you will be waking up at 2am and going to the reloading bench like me
