A company I have been doing business with for some time came out with a new bullet last year.
I just recently learned of it, I need to get out from under my rock more often I suppose.
It is a 225 grain truncated cone 45 suitable for use in 1911, Glocks, and XDs and M&Ps.

These guys are great to deal with and get your stuff shipped out in a hurry.
If you don't cast your own I highly recommend them for your lead bullet needs.
I have not obtained any of the FlatHeads as yet so I have no personal data to share.
RhinoDefense from the highroad recomends the following as starting OALs
For those wondering what OAL to load those to in the .45 ACP, 1.185-1.225" is the sweet spot. Go longer (1.225) for 1911s and shorter (1.185) for Glock and XD.
Regarding M&Ps BDS from the highroad had this to say
Went to the range late this morning (continuing my M&P45 trigger job testing) and test shot the FlatHeads.
I loaded test batches at 1.220" - 1.225" OAL using 5.0 gr (4.9 gr actual) of W231/HP38. Both lengths fed fine from the magazine for the M&P45.
Shot groups at 7-10 yards averaged 1"-1.5".
