If you want to shoot the powerbelts go to the 223gr arotip and back your powder down to 80gr you are trying to push them way to hard .
as far as a saboted bullet 200gr is going to be the heavyest bullet you are probbably going to be able to find , I would start off with 80gr shoot 3 see how they group then go 85gr shoot 3 see how they shoot and so on you will find your sweet spot somewere between 80gr and 110gr with a 200gr saboted bullet in both of my .45cal Extremes it is a 200gr XTP & 85gr of 777 .
