As you can see 115grV of BH209 makes very low pressure in a 45cal and a 200gr sabot load.

This is 85gr by weight or slightly over 120gr by volume. The trace was done in a Savage Pacnor45 using a Savage breach plug.




I did not check any of the options since it does not have one possible option. Primer pocket is slightly over sized or simply not supporting the area near the rim of the primer enough. Ive shot many many loads that are nearly double that PSI and ive never had a Fed209 or Win209 primer look like that.
