I am on the opposite side of the state again for work and had a ton of free time so I like to find the LGS and see what's what. I found a hole in the wall shop and he has some really neat stuff but he was also a maker of bullets.

He only had 45 ACP .452 lead cast SWC in 155Gr. A bag of 250 cost me $14.99. I got the one he had. I thought this was a pretty good deal.

Problem is I am not finding any info on a bullet that light. I will use W231 of course and don't know if 6.0gr is going to be too hot for it any thoughts you wise loaders out there?

OR....was this not such a good purchase? I asked him to get some more made so I could come back Friday morning on my way out of town and buy more.

Any thoughts?

oh yeah forgot to mention once fired .45 brass .04 cents a piece....a super good price for not cleaned or sized but de-primed brass. I know it might be a pain to clean with no primer in nere.....

MD Smith site (http://www.reloadammo.com/45loads.htm) says W231 6.0 gr. will get you 998 fps
