Greetings, all:

I'm gearing up to load .45 ACP and have a question about seating semi-wadcutters. Do I want to seat them so the front of the forward band is flush with the case mouth? Seat to magazine length? Seat to some other length?

I'm planning to use 200-grain cast semiwadcutters in both a 1911 and a 25-2, but the main use will be in the auto, so they need to feed correctly in that gun. I'm assuming the revolver won't care much about seating depth.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, and Semper Fi.

Ron H.
