Re: 45 ACP

I load .44 mag too, so I keep lpp's on hand anyway.

As for metering, I only load (at most) 100-200 at a time anyway and scale weigh each charge, so I'm not too worried about metering issues. Since I load a lot more revolver rounds than I do rimless rounds, I keep Unique, AA#7, 2400 and TrailBoss available. No doubt there are "better" powders for the .45 acp than what I'm using, but since I'm not a high volume shooter I use what's available.

Re: 45 ACP

I cull all the small primer pocket .45 acp brass.... not enough of them around here yet to worry about keeping them

I use standard large pistol primers and mostly Unique and AA#7. If they cycle well in my old 4# Kimber with a heavy mainspring, they'll work in most any .45 acp pistol
