Hornady SST in 45ACP?

ALR · 01-28-2006, 09:32 PM

I looked at some hornady,read purchased some muzzle loader bullets with sabots in 50 cal,bullets 45 measures .452 to check to see if reloadable in 45-70 rifle,read 2 shot rifle. I rekon they will not be accurate in .458 bore,but seem to be usable in 45 ACP bore. Haven't tried but am curious if will feed in 45 auto 1911 Gov model. Anyone out there tried? The SST has a plastic point and seem to be better ballisticly low velocity performance as in muzzle loader.These were in 250gr and I think are made in 200gr,any ideas?
All responses welcome.....................Tony

ALR I do the same thing with Barnes bullets for the 45 colt but not the acp as that would be a very expensive source for the bullets
