Greatings Super fans 8) . I have a rather old Auto Ordinance 1911 in 38 Super. It has the .356 diameter barrel. I have been using Sierra #8250 150 gr. FPJ's. It now looks like Sierra has discontinued them and I am running out :evil: . The .355 diameter bullets won't work, they just rattle down the barrel. Are there any other .356's in that weight and style out there?

Remington and Winchester make 130-grain FMJ bullets in .356 diameter. Hornady makes a 121-grain Action Pistol (FMJ-FP) bullet as well. Rainer offers a 150-grain plated bullet that is around 150 grains.

There are a lot of lead bullets that would work as well.
