in my guns (and maybe some others)
I use 5.0g W231, (normally) CCI300, OAL 1.250ish, and it makes Major.
I have tried the gamut.....
Oh, you made me look. Let me offer my chrono data:
>1911 5" BarSto Caspian
230g Rainier TCJ-RN, Fed 150, 5.0g W231, av = 724fps
230g Rainier TCJ-RN, 5.5g W231, av = 782fps
230g LRN, 4.8g W231, av = 750fps
230g LRN, 5.0g W231, av = 778fps
230g LRN, 5.3g W231, av = 824fps
230g W-W FMJ, 5.1g W231, av = 697fps
230g W-W FMJ, 5.3g W231, av = 755fps
230g Golden saber, 5.5g w231, av = 814fps
>1911 3" Ultra Shadow LEII
230g Golden Saber, 5.7g W231, av = 755fps
> EAA Witness, 4.5"
230g W-W FMJ, 5.7g W231, av = 761fps (same lot in Caspian av = 774fps)
230g W-W FMJ, 5.8g W231, av = 780fps
I got more, but you get my point, ay?
