    Have you slugged your barrels? If they slug at 0.355", there is no reason to size your bullets any bigger than that. The pressures should bump the bullets to obturate in the barrel to prevent...

    I'm seeing 35-37,000 psi depending on the actual bullet profile. I can see your M&P45 handling it for a few shots but a stock 1911 was not made for these pressures. An M&P45 barrel and slide is...
