I forgot to add that it sucks as a bore cleaner...
I get the same results, it worthless as a bore cleaner or its a 48hr job to get it clean. I do not have that type of time. I am using Shooters Choice amd M Pro 7 right now to clean. The M Pro 7 has no smell to it, so its real good for indoor use.

I have the old Dillion FL 2000, they call it the CV 2001 now. I got it around 1988. I have had no problems. I do not tumble for more then 1 1/2 to 2 hrs. Not sure if that gives it a longer life.

I think you would be fine with something between 1.225-1.250.
I thought MAX OAL for 45 acp was 1.270.
I checked 2 different books they both said 1.275 MAX OAL. My 45 loads are 1.255 OAL out of 1911 style guns, Bear, Sig, Kimber, Ed Brown. Never had any problems so far.
Considering reloading lead

I have used lead for years until the range I go to stopped all lead from being shot. They only want jacketed shot now. Something to do with the lead levels always being to high.
One thing I can tell you is the lead is much more work cleaning up the barrel etc etc. Its dirty compared to jacketed bullets. The jacketed bullets are a quick cleanup.
