What handgun are you using?  The CorBon +P stuff is not a good idea for most Colt SSA clones or S&Ws.  For them, either of the 225-grain loads from Federal or Winchester are okay, but the BuffaloBore loads are even better.  Although they outperform the factory loads by a bunch, they are safe in any post-war .45LC.  They feature a 255-grain bullet at 1000 fps and also work great in Rugers and T/Cs.   8)
