Well... to get the ball rolling!  Can't help you with Titegroup and I don't know what gun you are using (revolver or 1911) or what caliber but here's one that makes major and then some!

 

Gun:  S&W Performance Center 625-8 (4-inch bbl.)

 

Bullet:  Blue Bullets 250 gr. RNFP (Polymer Coated/.4515)
Powder:  Alliant Power Pistol 5.7 grs
Primer:  Federal 150
Case:  Starline 45 Auto Rim
LOAL:  1.200
Average Velocity:  714.13 fps  
ES: 11.94 
SD:  5.09

 

Should work just fine in a 1911 with .45 ACP brass!

Pin loads for this season,, which starts the 4th although I cant make it. So be august for me.
255 Bayou, 6 inch barrel RIA SS 45 ACP

 

4.5 grs AA2..  743 FPS,   for 189 pf,,, Chrono in the heat probably 90 yesterday,, 742,742,745,741, 745, 742 , 743...  Seems like I won the SD game.. am thinking of bumping it up to 4.6 grs and finishing loading this case before I switch my press over. I have a case of soft, coated 230 gr bullets Id like to try.

Oh because it does matter, my club shoots 5 pins front of a 4X8 plywood, so about 3.5 from rear of table.
