Yes. I've looked at their website. They have a link to this. https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/10/5a/2f/0621f984dff0af/US7219607.pdf
And, this youtube fella has played around with smokeless powders in muzzle loaders.
So, I think it would be possible for a 45 acp pressured copper...

This article by Boatright is a long discourse about what he calls ULD bullets. They are long, copper bore riding bullets with hollow bases that self align upon chambering and they will...
I think a bullet that can do this https://files.osgnetworks.tv/9/files/2013/08/federal_hst_ammo_11.jpg at sub-transonic velocities would be good. I have gotten HSTs to do this at high 900 fps muzzle velocities in jugs of water. I need to test them through wood or heavy clothing and then into...
So, kind of like this? https://www.nosler.com/30-caliber-170gr-rn-partition-50ct.html, but with a flat nose?
Do the bullets have a lead core in the base as well as in the nose?
There is this image too...

Bullet Obturation of Rifle Barrels
James A. Boatright
December 13, 2018
Introduction
The sealing, or obturation, of the hot gasses produced during combustion of gunpowder propellants is a significant concern in interior ballistics. Leakage of some of the hot gasses...

This is an article by Mark White about suppressor design with a section about bullet design for subsonic work. I like the graph with velocity on the X axis and decibels on the Y. It's another illustration of how impactful the transonic zone is...
The ideas come cheaply and easily. The R&D part requires a bit more capital investing. I would need the machinery that Nosler has, and all of the hand loading equipment of which I have none currently. So, what kind of accuracy have you gotten with your Nosler bullets out of your muzzle...
Thank you. I recon I'll have to stick with the standard flat based, heaviest for caliber cup and core hollow point options for now. I wish there were more 250+ grain options for 45 acp to run through my suppressed 16 inch barrel. Those would be truly sub-transonic. The 230 grain options are...
Greetings,
I am interested in the optimization of pistol cartridges for use in PCCs such that the projectiles would be launched at sub-transonic velocities and that the bullets would be suppressor friendly. I currently have a Ruger LC carbine chambered in 45 acp with a 16" barrel. I run it...
