In additional those powders mentioned above, I also use 700-X for 45acp. See the Hogdgon website for load data.

With 230 grain RN, I use a COL of 1.24”. I also apply a 0.468” crimp. All brass gets run through a Lee Bulge Buster die since I shoot only range pick-ups with unknown histories. Finally, all completed rounds get run through a Dillon headspace gauge/case checker for final quality assurance inspection.

Hope this helps...
