    OAL Help - 45 ACP with WST

    I just made my first dummy round, ever, using the WST data. The books I have,, Lee and Hodgdon, say to use an OAL of 1.19. I am using a 230 grain FMJ bullet and have stopped seating at 1.197. This looks very very short to me! I just measured a factory WWB 230 grain fmj and it measures 1.273...

Which will clean, provide a reasonably shiny finish, and process the brass better? I looked at the prices of both types and thought that at...
