Wow! I just shot my 1st reloads! All fired well and no FTF's or FTE's. My father gave me his Smith &Wesson Model 645 .45ACP Semi-Auto that he bought new in 1985 and only put 20 rounds through it. When I called him to tell him my 1st .45ACP loads did well, he said "Merry Christmas, the gun is yours", very cool!

I used Hornady 185gr HP/XTP bullets with 7.7gr of Unique powder using Speer brass and CCI magnum small pistol primers (required by Speer) and should be at 1030fps. shot well, handled nice and was pretty accurate at 25yds. I'm very happy with my 1st reloading experience!
