Most modern 1911s (and a LOT of the older ones) feed and function with the current JHPs just fine.

That has a good bit to do with engineering on both sides (firearm and ammunition). The JHPs for .45ACP are designed to work at those velocities, and they work really well. The GoldDots, GoldenSabres, HSTs, SXTs, Xs, and the rest, including the cheaper "white box" Winchesters and similar, all do just fine.

Handle several, find the one that fits you best, buy it, fire several hundred rounds to break it in and get familiar with it, and carry on.

This schit is only as hard as you make it.
