Without digging for some old reference material from that stack of stuff over in the corner, As I recall the actual spec for the .45ACP bullet is .4515. I have shot lots of bullets that were .452 in both jacketed and lead. Naturally, Anytime you start using a new component back off the load and work your way back up.
