RE: Gold dot HP 45 auto 230 grain bullet

There is a possibility that the older Knight has a 504 bore, if that is the case the "crush rib" which is meant for tight bores, might allow a lot of pressure to escape by the sabot reducing velocity.
I know when I tried the crush rib in the White with .452 bullets - I lost in excess of500 fps - the accuracy was still decent but not like shooting a 12 with a .452
