You mentioned the condition of the gun but thankfully failed to fill us in on the condition of your drawers.

The gun is ruined but it could have been worse, losing an eye would be horrible.

Hodgdon says 4.0 max:
230 GR. LRN Hodgdon Clays .452" 1.200" 3.5 716 13,700 CUP 4.0 793 16,800 CUP

Universal Clays 5.4 max:
230 GR. LRN Hodgdon Universal .452" 1.200" 4.5 703 11,400 CUP 5.4 857 16,800 CUP

I looked on the side of my Clays jug and the only .45 ACP load is this:
5.2 Gr 155 gr Cast LSWC Win Case Fed150 Primer 1.230" OAL 1082 fps.
