I had (may still have) one of the kits to make Dmag brass. I tweaked it to make 45 Super brass, and 45 acp "wadcutter brass". The wadcutter brass had a shoulder for the base of the bullet, and was more bother than it was worth, but my 1917 had no problem setting off the WLRP. Come to think of it, that 1917 almost certainly had a Wolff spring kit.
As to why I ventured down that road, while camping out west I once woke to find a bear in the tent, standing on the sleeping bag I was occupying. Most of the 8 rounds I fired exited the bear; I wanted a bit more velocity, and a bullet that would expand a bit. On my best day I couldn't have got 6 shots off from a revolver as fast as the 8 from the 1911
