I'm fairly certain I know the answer to this question, but I want to check my facts and make sure I've researched it correctly.
Among the reloading equipment I inherited when my dad passed away was a box of bullets. Their marked "45-250" and listed as "copper plated". I checked the diameter and their .452 and 250 grains. Am I correct in that these cannot be loaded into a .45ACP? In all the looking I only found .452 diameter bullets for .45 ACP to be of lead, and not copper plated.
As you can guess I havent reloaded much, but I'm semi comfortable with the basic's. I don't want to start loading obscure loading for the .45 ACP until i know more of what I'm doing. I like my fingers and eyes just where they are =-)
Thank you for reading!
