Anyone loaded these in 45ACP? They are by far the cheapest non-cast bullets I have run across for this cartridge. Accurate enough for target practice?
I gave my father in law a box of 500 of them for his birthday. I load them with 4.5gr Bullseye for a soft can-popper and up to 5.0gr of Red Dot for a more serious close range load. My father in law likes 700X so I worked up a few loads for it and found they were pretty good in the full spectrum from mid-600fps up through the mid-800’s - about 3.8gr through 4.7gr 700X - from my milspec Auto Ordinance 1911A1. He’s shooting a Colt Gold Cup. I think they’re a good bullet for plated.Anyone loaded these in 45ACP? They are by far the cheapest non-cast bullets I have run across for this cartridge.

Are you including shipping cost in your cost comparison? I used to buy Xtreme plated bullets exclusively, especially on sale, until they priced themselves out of my market with their IMHO exorbitant shipping costs. ymmvAnyone loaded these in 45ACP?

That’s why I buy them w/free ship to store from Cabelas. Of course if you don’t live near bass pro/cabelas it’s academic.Are you including shipping cost in your cost comparison?
