I ran out of powder so I bought some Bullseye at the recommendation of a friend for 230gr 45 ACP LRN's. He suggested 3.8 gr of BE which I thought sounded a little light but he swears by it. I tried it and my Springfield 1911 cycled just fine with them but my accuracy was all over the place. I have since noticed on this and other boards that many people use 4.8 to 5.0 BE for 230gr LRN's. Could the lightness of the load be a factor in my poor accuracy? Is there an advantage to using a heavier load, seems like lighter would be easier to be accurate with.
