what is the best Accurate Molds bullet design choice for a 1911?

I know there's a current Accurate Molds thread right now. I just didn't want to hijack it. I'm getting ready to order a 45ACP and 9mm Mold from Tom. I decided on a 9mm design, but can't settle on a 45 design. I was looking at 45-230E and 45-230M. Are any of you guys currently firing one of these through a 1911 platform?

Thanks,
Rob

Never argue with a stupid person....they'll wear you out, bring you down to their level....then beat you with experience...

i'd start at the 200-a and work on down.

i see 2 molds i'd really like to have on this page for my 45 acp and 45 AR.
i'll probably end up with just the AR mold.

it's all an educated guess,,,, till the trigger is pulled.

the more i find out about shootin boolits, the more it contradicts everything i ever learned about shooting jaxketed.

If it was easy, anybody could do it.

45-230E. That TC is a real fight stopper.

I have the 45-230B, it is very close to the original 230 RN. It feeds is both my 1911's like slick, it shoots very accurate, and I just love the shape for some reason!

Looks like the 230E is pretty close.

I shoot my share of 45ACP's and I'm a big fan of the 200 gr versions. Like the others said, the H&G 68 SWC and good clones are near impossible to beat. That's my Oh-pinion.~! Mike

You should too.Agreed..Bill just gave what I consider the best all around mold for the 45acp

I went with the 230F.

I wanted a hardball contour for feeding in 1911's of numerous pedigrees, but I wanted a big, flat nose for crush cavity effects. This mold manages to give both quite nicely.
