Id like to say that first off i am new to reloading handgun...
With that said I'm trying to load some 255 gr cast bullets for 45 ACP and i cant get them up to an OAL of 1.200. Every time I load them I can push them to 1.143 with my fingers. I know that with this load that OAL is a huge factor in pressure. Would a taper crimp fix this issue?
I would like to stick to the 255 gr load because my SA 1911 loaded Really likes them, but I am having this difficulty reloading them.
for these I used a lee classic loader, Lee 255452 cast mold and Unique powder
