.451 & .452
Quote from Reloader on December 23, 2011, 3:49 pmI am new to reloading and am confused by the .451, .451 and .454 calibers for bullets. When reloading for my Glock 30 what is the proper caliber. I realize we are talking about thousands in variances but where can I determine best fit.Thanks

Quote from Reloader on April 9, 2012, 2:39 pm.451" is most common for jacketed bullets. For lead bullets, .452" is more common than .451", but both are used interchangeably.
