I guess that's the thing I don't really understand despite all my reading. The shape & length of a plated round nose bullet is different from a wad cutter, or semi-wad cutter, so would I still use the c.o.l. from that load data? I understand the density would be (roughly) the same, but the...

Wow, thanks guys. This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for. I think my next step is to test higher power loads and deal with the added recoil until I've used up the CFE. Much appreciated.

Has anyone else worked up some loads with CFE Pistol, specifically for .45 acp? I've been trying to find an accurate, low-recoil load with 200gr plated RN bullets from X-treme, with a c.o.l. of 1.250" I don't have a chronograph, so I'm I'm not sure what velocities I'm getting, but starting...
