I also found the 5.2 grains HP-38 with 230 grain hardball to be a sweet spot load for all 1911s I own. In fact, I'm about to load up a batch in a little while.
Some universal rifle sweet spot loads: 45-70 - 51.5 grains IMR 3031 with 300 grain Rem JHP (safe for all 45-70s, kills deer like the Hammer of Thor) 30-06 - 59 grains IMR 4350 with ANY 150 grain bullet. (NOT a Garand load) 22 Hornet - 11.2 grains IMR 4227 with 35 grain VMax.

I also use 5.1 gr W231 (identical to HP-38) under a 230 grain LRN.
New reloaders...start at low end of published data and work up to these loads, and take notes

I am, however, buying supplies, and if I come across good deals I will buy alot(W231) and pass the supplies to COTEP members at exact cost. I'll pay the shipping since I missed so many birthdays here. Let's just hope I can make that one score that is trying to peek over the horizon!
