This post is a follow up to one I started last week on the .45ACP and Power Pistol. I finally found the best load for the Ruger KP90DCO with the Speer TMJ.
Rem Brass
CCI LP
7.9gr Power Pistol
Speer 230 TMJ
COL 1.225
This is a REALLY hot load, but is one of the most accurate I have ever found for this pistol. (All 10 ring at 10 yrds). The problem is that it leaves terrible copper fouling in the bore. I switched to another TMJ style bullet of the same weight and worked the load back up to about the same velocity (980fps), and guess what? Same result. So, my question is, I would like to keep the accuracy and velocity, but loose the fouling. Does anyone know of a round nose, copper bullet that you can shoot above 900fps without copper issues? I also want a bullet that is cost effective, as I shoot the .45acp ALOT (about 300rds a week or more).
Thanks,
