    Looking to use up the last of my WSL for some 45 loads, 200 gr SWC I found a few sources that hint that 4.3-5.3 is the range, I loaded up some at 4.9 and they seem to function fine and no pressure signs on the case but would like to find a reliable source instead of some hint of a load from an unknown source.

    4.3 to 5.4 is the range in Modern Reloading. Your load is probably good for 850 fps which is pretty mild for the 200 SWC.

    The Lee reloading manual lists data for 27 other powders for the 45 ACP/200 SWC. It is the the most comprehensive manual on the market. I highly recommend it. I always look up manufacturer data than check it against the Lee manual. His data has never gotten me into trouble.
