I have started reloading lead bullets in 45acp and have a little problem. I'm loading 230gr LRN with 4.0 gr Bullseye powder. They smoke like an old frieght train and are leading the gun barrel. What am I doing wrong????

The ONLY time we had a leading problem with our .45acp has been due to a dirty bore. Clean the bore really well and try again.
J&K, what do you size your .45ACP bullets to?
I don't know how good Taurus is at keeping there bores in spec but he needs to make sure he has a good fit to his bore.
Another possibility is over crimping and swaging the the bullet down so that is undersized.
