Nope.
I mean you're right about the magazine limit, but wrong about my question.
Depending on the platform-
1911 mag body front face is a radius to feed ball ammo.
SIG P220 mag body max OAL is 1.260"
S&W 645,745,945,4506 mag body are the most generous for various meplat designs.
GLUCK/TupperWare-good luck.
Load one of your L-WFN projectiles into a 45ACP case to 1.270" OAL.
The exposed projectile drive bands forward of the grease groove would be your required freebore/leade requirement.
Load 45 SUPER brass w/ appropriate recoil spring to gain more velocity.
I guess you want to talk at me - sigh.
You should read my question first. I know how to find my max COL for my chosen bullet - but that wasn't my question.
By the way, you do not need 45 super brass - been there, done that many years ago. A poster "clarkm" tested 45acp brass to beyond 40k psi without issue probably 30 years ago.
Wide Flat Nose bullets penetrate better than any other profile I've tried, but they are nearly impossible to use in a standard 45acp due to inadequate "throat".
There is another profile called "ogive wad cutter" (an swc with a really wide & long nose) but it is a bit unstable because it is a long ways to the driving bands (a lot of bullet before the driving bands engage the rifling). I can buy a 215gr version from Missouri Bullet Company.
But the limitation, other than magazine, is the throat which was sized for starting 230gr round nose bullets. Lots of folks have reamed their throats - used to be a common upgrade.
I'm wondering how much you can ream (i.e. lengthen the throat) before accuracy gets really bad. I would like to lengthen the 0.452" portion of the "throat" (i.e. freebore) by 0.100" or more.
I can't find a 1911 gunsmith either.
