type of ammo? Speer large primer .45 case. CCI large pistol primer 230GR LRN bullet loaded to 1.250 oal 23 grains bullseye. I don't see the problem? That would be a compressed load. Normally, one does not compress Bullseye. I think that may be the origin of the problem. |

My normal load is 4.6 grains. |

So 23 grains is the breaking point? What was the most it took before that load? Impressive that you actually got 23 to fit in the case though. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile 12 grains didnt do anything but stick the case and pierce the primer, then i said fuck it and went for broke. Wow. That's pretty impressive that it held up to that. What's that around 130% more than it should be? Noob at reloading here. I'm thinking 4.5-5 grains is the norm for 45acp. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

About damn time I'm right about something. Now ya need a glock and a 1911 for the ultimate test. And no I will not donate a gun for the test. Still impressive it held up at 12 grains.

You didn't crimp it enough. Next time make sure to roll crimp enough that the case mouth is visibly biting into the bullet. You'd also want to use a magnum primer to ensure the full 23gr charge is burned off before the bullet is out of the bbl.
