I was given a bag full (sic: about 275) of either some Hornady XTP 200 grain bullets. 

They have a lead post in the hollow point design ... so I am not sure they are Hornady, was thinking they might be an old Barnes' design maybe, but I cannot remember Barnes' ever putting-put an "XTP" but rather an XPB.  On the bag all it says is "XTP 200 grain HPs" and they do measure out at .451 and weigh-out at 200 grains.  Sort of looks more like a HydraShok design now that I come to think of it ... but they do not look like they have been pulled from anything.

I've been looking for a .45 ACP recipe for them but to no avail.  Found a 45 LC recipe or two, but nothing for the .45 ACP.

Anyone got any data or history with these that they would share?  Anything that might help me figure out what I've got?

Did some research in the form of a comparison - some factory loads I had stashed away in inventory.

They are Hornadys.

I found one recipe for them this morning online.  Any others, feel free to chime in - and thanks in advance.
