One thing not yet mentioned regarding ball size. Typically a ball .01 or .005 smaller than bore is recommended. Some target shooters do go to bore size or slightly larger for an extra tight fit. So recommended ball for a .45 is .440 or .445. Patch makes up the difference in the bore. As mentioned already, you may want to try both. I have two different .50 caliber rifles. With the same patch material one rifle likes a . 490 and the other a .495.
