I think @hlee posts about pistol reloading often. I may be wrong.
That is where I would start reading if you haven't. I'm sure others with more knowledge will post shortly.

Gotcha my apologies.Sorry, not this Hlee. I'm not set up to reload for 45acp. But, my uneducated opinion is free, and readily available...
Used both rd and 231 with 250g cast but from a revolver. Lots of 240g cast from 1911 as well. Would use the 250s but wont feed well with their flatter noses vs the 240 rn one.
Your round nose should be just fine.
Castboolits.gunloads.com will have all you need for anything cast, data etc.
Used fat bullets, 453ish diameter i believe, plain base. No leading at medium loads. Cannot recall charges offhand, but Lyman manual should have what you need as well. I can look later if you need.

If the goal is velocity, choose 231.
Red Dot will be slower, but softer felt recoil.
