Pin Loads .45 ACP
You can certainly make do with the components you have, luxone. Load to a power factor of at least 195 (about 205 is better) and it is good to keep velocity above 850 fps. At lower velocities bounce back can be an issue.
A semi wadcutter shape offers more sharp edges, useful for grabbing on to a pin and getting some momentum transfer going. A little more forgiving than RN FMJ. In a revolver, I use a full wadcutter.
My favorite load in .45 ACP uses the 235 gr. SWC "Pinbuster" from R&R Bullets 909 Hspt Dr. Crawford NE 69339 (308) 665-1312. I fuel them with 7.1 gr. of V V N350. I set the OAL using the round nose stem set to factory RN FMJ (WW White box) length.
Cheers,
