Yep, I was thinking 200gr bullets. Am I being too ambitious? I don't want to beat up my new 1911. Just looking for a potent home defense (and occasional noisemaker for curious black bears) when I'm not target shooting with Winchester 230gr FMJ rounds

Personal opinion use factory ammo for home defense. I don't know anyone else's reason for reloading but mine are to save some money. No need to use more powder than needed and I'm definitely not looking to beat the snot out of any of my guns with hot loads.
