Hello I'm fairly new and my first book that I am now starting is Speers Manual no. 14.
Over time I've read some people say how they have chronod their .45 acp rounds up to 1200 fps. That's pretty fast. This manual I'm reading made no reference to a loading that even reached 1100 fps, and that was under the 'higher power' column (the book has two columns, one for lower power/velocity, and one for higher power/velocity).
What I'm asking is how did you guys get .45 acp to go higher to 1200 fps? You didn't read it in a manual, I'm assuming. Did you guys just keep throwing in more grams of powder on top of the book's suggestions, then hit the chrono? Silly trial and error??
