I'm looking at buying another Accurate mold, and am wondering about a few things. I've used a lot of different bullets in the last 30 years and have some opinions of what I like and don't like. Of course opinions don't mean much, and I'd open to learning.
I've come to the point where I like loads for most guns that approximate standard factory ammo. I'm looking at buying a new mold for .45 acp, and want a mold for a load close to GI ball ammo. When working up a load with a TC bullet that had to be seated deep to function, I remember reading to use caution with deep seated bullets to avoid over-pressure.
So, for a GI ball spec load, is it advisable to choose a bullet design that doesn't need to be seated deep? Any ideas on how bullet design like this affects accuracy? Anyone see anything I might be missing? These loads are for 1911s and a 1917 revolver. I'm looking at something like the 45-230MZ or 230V (I powder-coat). Any disadvantages with these? Any reason to go with a bevel-base design?
