    Those slower powders and increased charge weights produce more gasses that a comp 'needs' to work best.
    @DG23 —Thank you, I didn’t know that, and I would like to learn much more. Starting with 45 ACP.

    Can you please suggest book(s) and/or pointers that will help get me started? I’m starting with zero knowledge.

    Google is where I typically start, but would prefer a more reliable source. Thanks in advance,

    Compensated 1911's are definitely fun. No doubt you will enjoy yours!

    I shot ~150 +P rounds today that worked well. I want to try the Underwood +P 68 Lehigh.

    The Rowland 460 seems perfect for your comp. I can see why reloading is about experimenting. I’ll aim for Dillion ESSENTIALS kit after summer.

    Thank you again!

    Still using factory and moved to HST 124 Non +P here and on the Artemis—winning ammo on both

    Carry for the Staccato and gear:

    Same gear with the Artemis (now on 508T)

    I have a Stacatto P duo but would like to get a C2 for carry. I’ve been very impressed with my gun. And the company is very service oriented.

    I have had a chance to work with Stacatto support and they are good folks. Same for Atlas Gunworks, BTW, very good people support.
