Anyone have an 11th Edition Speer Manual?

I was hoping someone may have one of these and would be willing to share a photo of the .45 ACP 200gr LSWC loads. From my google research that manual is supposed to contain info for 452AA powder. I've also found in my search that 5.2gr was supposed to be a good target load, but I'd like to see the published data with my own eyes to be sure.

    There is A LOT of data online.  Just type in 452AA gunpowder.                                                                                                      "I used a lot of 452 back in the day for 12ga and 45 acp , excellent powder !"
    Data from Speer's 11 reloading book for 45 acp

    185gr tmj match-----4.3 to 4.7 gr @757 to 819fps

    200gr tmj combat----4.3 to 4.8 gr@ 745 to 804 fps

    200gr jhp-------------5.0 to 5.5 gr @868 to 916 fps

    230gr jrn-------------4.7 to5.3 gr @780 to 825 fps

    Seems like everything I've found is jacketed, I need lead. I also found it's the same as Trap 100, but most loads are for shotshell.
