Question for those that handload for the Hi-Point .45 acp pistol

[geo57]

Among you people that handload for your Hi Point model JHP .45 acp pistol, have you experienced any issues as far as function, brass deformity / bulges etc ?

I'm considering getting one and if I do it will be fed with my 230 gr. FMJ handload only. Thanks for your feedback.

I have Hi Points in 380 through 45ACP and hand-load for them all. I do not load hot, ever! I load for accuracy and they all will hold their own at 20 YDS using my handloads. I have never seen a problem with reloads/function or brass life/damage either. Mine will eat anything I have thrown at it. The 45 IS big and clunky but shoots extremely well for the price I paid for it. I would never CC it but that's not because of reliability problems.

I load Berrys 230g plated for my 45acp Hi-Point pistol and carbine. No loading or FTF issues at all.
