I've been using 3.5 gr of Bullseye under under 200 gr home casts for years. These will cycle my Colt's GC but not my buddies Springfield 1911.

Yep. It's a gun to gun thing. That 3.5 load won't cycle my GC either but Other folk that I know have no problem with it. Doesn't work in my gun even with a lighter spring.
I was told, years ago, by a high master shooter that you needed 750 fps for a 200 gr. bullet to be stable at the 50 yard line. I have seen no reason to doubt that. Gallery shooting, though, allows for some pretty mild loads and accurate shooting.
