45acp, 200Gr Reload - Issue/ Input Needed

[03fatboy]

Thanks for the suggestion Bill, I wasn't looking forward to pulling them and was going to try them through my Colt on the next range visit so I will also lube up the 4506 as well to to see if can empty them (~40 rounds).

I will make new 200gr rounds, and only a handful of each powder charge at 5.2 - 5.4. My guess is these will hit the sweet spot.

Thanks all for the input.

I use Tite Group at 4.8gr with a 200gr plated RN (extreme) with a 1.20 COL and functions perfect. Yes, the Hodgdon burns a little faster and much cleaner.

that is the exact load I was using with 200 gn as well (besides OAL) for a good while.

My 1911 Doesn't like short rounds, and I load all Round nose to 1.270
