Matt - the entire purpose of 11.25mm is that it does not expand as it is already 11.25mm. I personally am not much of a fan of +P loadings for the old M1911. I think the 230 grain GS or FED Hydrashok is about as good as they get for expansion. As I recall, the FBI uses the 230 grain Hydrashok in 11.25mm.

Josh - he got you! The only reason I knew it was that a friend once had a Norwegian M1914 in 11.25 (a M1911 variant made I think in Norway in 45 ACP). When the Germans took Norway, they appropriated them for use by the Waffen-SS. Sometimes they can be found marked with waffenampt, the German proof/acceptance mark.
