I use unmodified .460 S&W Magnum casings for the .45 BPM. You need every bit of that casing to fit 60 grains of FFFg in there. You can see a video of the inaugural test firing of the .45 BPM in my converted Walker. Notice that I didn't feel like using my hand to test fire it until I gathered some data.
