    Looks like it. Some topics are harder to find information on than others.

    I have used 200gr SWCs backwards in a 45acp and they worked very well.

    I have numerous .45 Colt Revolvers and load the MP Mold 453395 HBWC bullets into them. The bullet is a true HBWC and is accurate in most of my .45 Colt revolvers. I have used this bullet in a S&W 25-5 with a 6 1/2 barrel with great effect.

    A year or so ago, I sent an e-mail to Accurate molds asking about a 45 cal wadcutter made for tumble lubing. A little while later it was designed and on the website. I bought a 5 cavity mold and use it in 45 ACP in a Blackhawk. It works just fine.
