I find 230 gr shoots POA in my gun. I prefer to shoot a .452 RN cast in my 1911. I forgot the brand. I use AA#5, but Titegroup is also a fine powder for 45 ACP.

I use Weapons Shield CLP with a bore brush after bore cleaner to get all the lead out.

I find min load and max loads to be the most accurate with max being slightly better.
