Pretty slow powder for a 45ACP. I've never used Ramshot for anything else so I wouldn't buy a can just to try it for this.
But when I was trying different powders for 45 Super loads I tried some 2400, an old magnum powder favorite, in some loads.
On the charts 2400 is slightly faster than Ramshot. In my loads, that were a little heavier than the listed Ramshot loads, I got poor results cycling the action.
My Colt 1911 was already setup for 45 Super loads using moderate speed powders & the slow powder didn't have the grunt for it.
I'm sure I could have made a spring change but I think powders like Power Pistol & Long Shot are better suited for (+)P loads & above in the 45ACP.
Accurate #7 might be one to play with next time though?
