Does anyone have a 45 Auto. 185 gr practice load? I've tried titegroup, but didn't like the way it scorched the cases. Clays universal was marginal. COL seems critical. I've been using Berrys 185 HBRN set at the same COL as 230 FMJ -- 1.230. I'm using 185 to match my critical defense carry load, which has been completely reliable. Thanks

My last loads were with universal clays, mostly cause thats what was available locally. The loads ere a little dirty!!!
I'm shooting hand poured lee 230gr through a officer.

I thinking adout trying bullseye.

Thanks Toney, When I was shooting a lot of 38 special I used Bullseye but found it to be very dirty. I haven't tried it in the 45, but from what I read its popular with the 1911 reduced springs crowd.

Bullseye is very dirty, try W231 or WST.
