I am really new to reloading but just made a couple hundred of these. They weigh out at about 229 grains and I am using Unique powder. Anybody got any good data and experience with this combo in LC?

Being that the 067 is really made for the 45 acp & ar with no crimp grove. to be used in a 45 LC i wouild buy a taper crimp die from lee for the 45 LC.
I regulary use a taper crimp die for loads up to 1000 fps with cast bullets with a crimp grove in 38 , 357 , 44 and 454 casull revolvers with no problems & excellent accuracy so your noncrimp grove bullet should work ok for loads up to 1000 fps in your 45 LC just ck for the bullet moving forward by loading 6 & shooting 5 rounds and checking the COL of the 6th to see if the bullet moved repeat with the same 6 th round not fired and 5 new ones if it doesnt move you will be ok

I have shot several hundred of these out of a 45LC. Just keep the speed down and have a good crimp.
