Re: FMJ vs. Lead for .45 ACP
SWC bullets make nice clean round holes in the target but some guns won't feed them reliably. round nose feed well in almost all. The lubricant in commercial bullets is adequate for most uses if you notice any leading coating them with Lee Liquid Alox will usually stop that. It is an extra step and often won't be needed. Clays may be your best choice of powder for lead bullet use of what you have in stock. In my experience, the .45 ACP is a very forgiving round as far as use of lead bullets is concerned and a lead 200 grain SWC is the most accurate of all the choices in lead bullets.
