    Looking for reloading data for a particular bullet to shoot in my 45 (Long) Colt. Smith and Wesson 25-5 and Ruger new Blackhawk. The bullets are Hornady 200 gr FTX. .452". #45215. I have a Hornady reloading manual about 2 years old. I really don't want to buy the newest book just to get info on one bullet. Can I ask for someone to scan that page in newer book and email image to me? Or could someone provide a link to a reputable source with that data? I was given a box of 50 bullets. I hate to waste them and just leave them sitting unused.

    Thanks.

    My Hornady 9th edition has nothing. It does have a 200gr lead bullet and a 225gr FTX though.

    Let me check some others real quick.

    This is for the 200gr XTP but should be the same for that bullet.

    On a side note, the Richard Lee book is excellent. It has a ton of different loads and covers many powders and bullets.

    The Lyman 49th edition only lists 7 loads for that weight (jacketed bullet).

    I have been thoroughly impressed by the Richard Lee book. Like most Lee products, it does a great job and it is way cheaper than the competition. I think the manual runs $20 or so and has more loads than any other book I have seen.

    The Lyman:
