Missouri Bullets .45 ACP special

If anyone is looking for .45 ACP bullets, this might be an option for you. Apparently a retail location placed an order for something like 80K bullets but then went under. They're placing these bullets on sale until they're gone.

So, are 200gr SWC not suitable for .45LC? Missouri sells 200gr RNFP and 255gr SWC for .45LC but not these....

ETA: I've found that these 200gr SWC do not load well in some 1911's so maybe they are meant for revolvers?
I believe there is safety in numbers..
numbers like: 9, .22, .38, .357, .45, .223, 5.56, 7.62, 6.5, .30-06...

Weird, I've had no problems at all using the truncated cone SWC in my .45s. They've worked successfully in my SW1911PD, Springfield and Les Baer 1911 .45s.

But no, they won't work in the .45LC as I think the .45 LC wants .454 sized bullets but the .45 ACP is .451-2.

I went and checked my manuals and you're right, they're .451 for .45LC. I must have been thinking about throat sizes in some older gun. My bad.
