    Hey folks.. Recently got in some of the .452/230gr FMJ\’s.. They look good and weigh out nicely.
    Just curious if there\’s a recommended bullet profile to use when searching load data.
    Thinking about using the Nos 230gr FMJ data on Hodgdon\’s site as a reference.
    Any other suggestions besides the usual disclaimers?
    Thanks.. d:^)

    I\’ve been using a load suggested by an Alliant rep on another website. Snappy and accurate with these bullets.
    6.7 grains BE-86
    COAL 1.265
    Average 856 ft/s
    Springfield 5\” 1911

    I\’ve also used WSF.
    6.4 grains WSF
    COAL 1.255
    Average 833 ft/s
    Springfield 5\” 1911

    I prefer the BE-86.
