Try the powder manufactures web site or a good reloading manual and you should be able to find the info that you require..

"...Lead SWC..." Your barrel chamfered to use SWC's?
There's some data on Handloads.com.

Um, this is the first I've heard of this. Did you mean chambered, or chamfered? I just loaded 20 rounds of 175gr LSWC in .40S&W, is there something I should know?

edit: do you mean just for lead, or any type of SWC? 'cause I shot some handloaded jacketed SWC in my 1911 the other day, worked great...

Hensley & Gibbs # 68 bullet mould, IS a SWC, and a very popular 45 ACP bullet by the way.

For revolvers and unmodified 1911s.

Shot'em today, worked great. I guess my barrel is chamfered to use SWC.

Cerdan I bet you, your handgun was not modified.

The only question here, is some-one elses ill-begotten information.....

Of the four or five 1911s I have handled and shot, they all fed/shot SWC, H&G #68 without mods, no problem.

Now hollow points are a different story, the bigger the hollow point, the more apt it is to not feed right on un-modded guns.

You know what works for you so rock-on.
