I too have a multi -caliber 1911, a progressive project that had the attention of Scott Mulkerin (SDM Fabricating) when he was able to take on regular 'smithing, and all of the units were able to deliver 1 1/2-2" groups at 25 yards when I had the right load and was doing my part. I once shot a groundhog at 89 paces with open sights, and at 159 yards (lasered) with a Leupold 2x scope mounted. Both were with the 9mm Kart barrel installed in the .38 Super slide. Bullet was a 124 Golden Saber in a handload. As stated, each unit (.45, 10mm, and .38s/9mm) did about the same, thanks to EGW bushings, and Scott's handiwork at accurizing. [IMG]
