    Xtreme 45 acp

    Got a thousand 200 grain xtreme bullets from wes and put the ol loadmaster to work. 5.2 gn bullseye @1.25 oal. Do talk think that is too light, the cases are dirty with powder residue left over. This might be normal with bullseye, I've used it but can't recall. Thanks.

    A sonic cleaner or tumbler will make fast work of that.

    Yessir my tumblr will clean it up nice, but do you think it's sealing the chamber enough? Should I bump it up a little? It's being shot in a sig 1911. First time I've shot my loads from it.

    You could try that. As long as the gun likes it it should work.

    A little more crimp may help, or bump the chsrge up a bit.
    I never worried about soot on the cases if they shot good though
