	Does anybody know if a 1911a1 model70 .38 Super semi-rimmed "ACP"
have a different shaped chamber than a standard "ball" ammo chamber. I think
not, since they can feed directly into a .380 ACP chamber.....right?

	The idea of a straight cased rimless cartridge has never impressed
me since they rely on freebore and forcing cone for depth alignment and just
cost a lot in new barrels.

	My .45ACP chamber is getting "loose", and I have considered using
.455 Webley (tfl) bullets, which may require a chamber hood cut for the
Rimmed bullet. It may rupture at the case rim like some .45ACPs prior to
1940. 

	Maybe slightly swage/crimp the chamber as a last resort..since the
barrel is almost a goner, a bit of experimenting can't be too costly >:(
....I guess.
