For the round nose bullet, 1.245 works in every 1911 I have tried it in. And the OAL has 45 in it so that is what I settled on.

However, just to make Zombies head hurt I dont have any 45 ACP 1911s left. I rebarreled them to the cure for the small primer blues, the 45 GAP. Now my OAL is very different. And people give me free brass.
