Interesting article I found. Didnt know they use small pistol primers vs the larger ones for acp.

Now you have no excuse not to. The gun is there, the knowledge you seek is there. Almost as if it was written in the stars. It is Manifest Destiny. Now go spend some money.

Reloading dies are the same as 45ACP. the only downside is factory ammo is not that readily available at a decent price.

if the dies are the same... why then did one of the articles mention dies for 45 Gap? In the same place they did mention that acp would work.

My Dillon die set is labeled 45acp/45gap.

They are the same die.

And the same for .45 Winchester Magnum too. Got to love the Wildey!!!

The biggest problem is brass. Not readily available in unprimed condition, you have to gather it up prior to starting to reload.
