[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 3302399, member: 15527"] The only difference between the 45 acp and the 45 Auto Rim is the rim. Both cartridges are the same exact length and dimensions - with the exception of the 45 Auto Rim having a rim. With revolvers that shoot the 45 acp with moon clips, the rim on the 45 Auto Rim takes their place and eliminates the need or use of moon clips. Semi-auto rifles that shoot the 45 acp cannot shoot 45 Auto Rim cartridges because of the larger diameter of the rim. Yes, I chambered this barrel myself, as well as built the rifle. This rifle extracts the case just the same as any other cartridge, and since it is a break open single shot, it can shoot any factory loaded 45 acp cartridge or my reloaded 45 Auto Rim cartridges interchangably. The 45 Auto Rim and the 45 acp are reloaded with the same exact reloading dies, with the only difference being in the use of different shell holders. [/QUOTE]
