[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2392225, member: 15054"] When i pushed my 45 bullets fast they began to tumble When recovered they had Zero rifling grooves. they looked like i sanded the sides on a masonry block. Those rounds were skidding through the barrel and powder burned around the outside of the bullet. But when i slugged my barrel it slugged at 454" i think..I will need to look through my notes on that one. I can't chamber a bullet large enough to be over bore diameter. So i am stuck with slower speeds for accurate ammo. Your 1911 i would bet is tighter than my Hi Point. A buddy of mine uses power pistol and 230gr bullets that are cast from wheel weights. and steel cases...we chronied some and they were shall i say above the speed of sound by a bit... :) and they grouped good and no leading. I like steel cases. You never worry if you can find them all or not. [/QUOTE]
