1. Works very well, cost effective

   loading for USPSA over 4.1 grains titegroup.
   
   Held 2 " off hand/informal with nice recoil impulse and little to no leading.
   
   Will use at local matches vs higher cost jacketed.

2. 225 gr. 45 TC bullet (in 45 ACP)

   I loaded this primarily for my S&W Mod 25 to load with moon clips. I loaded with 5.7 gr. 231 and Fed 150 primers, and taper crimped. The bullet loaded into the revolver (with moon clips) very smooth and slick with no snags. The chrono data was average Vel 762, ES 38.16, SD 14.66, and it shot into an excellent 2" group. There was very little residue and no leading or plastic build up (only shot 12 rounds). The clean up took about 2 minutes with a pass of a patch down the bore and chambers and the gun was ready to put away. Very clean burning, I also shot through a 5" 1911, and obtained very similar results. The gun was so clean after just 10 rounds I didn't bother to clean it, I know I'll be taking it back out very soon after I load up more of this fine bullet. The load made a 171 power factor, H Richard on 29th Jul 2014
