I recently hog hunted with a 1911 for the first time. What a blast. I don't reload so can anyone recommend a good factory load for the .45 acp to use on Florida hogs. It seems most factory loads are more for anti-personal use rather that the thick skin hogs.
Would like all your feed back....

Here is the 1911 45acp being talked about in the handgun hunting forum

Thanks that was a big help..

My mean critter handgun is a Springfield Armory TRP .45 Auto. I would not hesitate taking it into griz country.

The .45 Auto loaded with .230 grains bullets is a very power cartridge.

While prior to its acceptance, in 1910 it was tested on cattle in the Chicago stockyards with good results.

Federal 230 gr. Hollow Point is a real killer..

Yes indeed! I still have a box of 230 G. Black Talons that I keep in my truck carry 1911. They are hard to find anymore but these days most ammo is.
