    Speer .451 gold dot j-words in a Ruger .45 colt?

    I hate to do this on a boolit page, but curious about subj. I love gold dot j-words when I am not shooting my own cast boolits. Speer quit making .452 gold dots, so was wondering if anyone has tried the .45 acp (.451) gold dots in a .45 colt? If so any problems with the the j-word sliding down the barrel instead of having the rifling grab and spin the j-word.
