I got these consistent homemade cast 45 round nose bullets from a neighbor shown on the left of my image that have some kind of wax all over them for lube. He has reloaded them and fed them in his 45 auto. They are a lead alloy with tin. Standard ratio.
I really don't want to use these so much in my 45 autos and wondered if I could probably load them in my 45 long colt cases instead.
I'd like to see how they work out.
I have had good success with those on the right in 45LC that are maybe a hair wider.
The crimp could be had at that highest ring on the round nose which is at the same height as the heavier bullet. Thank you.
(Looking at 8.6 gr Alliant Unique to start.)
