45 ACP SWC cast load data COAL 1.135 too short?

[JeffreyDeGraff]

When I load cast swc bullets for my 1911 .45acp, I load them until there is just about a fingernails width worth of the bullet shank sticking out. This is the only way they will feed through my guns. I don’t use the oal length that the books do, because the tips on all swc’s are different lengths, so that is why I use the bullet shanks as the guideline.
