Hope I can pull this off with a telephone.
Picture one shows cast of characters:
•LE Wilson pistol gauge
•45ACP cartridge with an Acme 230gr coated RN sized to .452” and a COL of 1.260”
•Four barrels—Wilson Combat, Baer, Alchemy, and Brown
Picture two: Cartridge fitting nicely in gauge
Picture three: Cartridge in Wilson Combat barrel. I’d say it fits.
Picture four: Cartridge not quite fitting Les Baer barrel
Picture five: Cartridge fitting Alchemy barrel.
Picture six: Cartridge not fitting Brown barrel.
Also in picture one is a cartridge built to same specs as Acme but with a .452” Extreme bullet. It fits easily into all barrels.
Also, sized empty cases of all lengths fit easily into all barrels.
Acme bullet has been run through Lee .452” sizer to ensure size and shape (what term do I want here? Concentricity?)
