lr30,

For plated bullets I use the same loads as jacketed bullets in all calibers.

Works fine,

Re: Pistol-Plated Bullet Load Data

Plated Pills = Lead Data.

I stopped shooting plated bullets beacause I can buy Jacketed bullets from Percision Delta or Montana Gold for the same price or just slightly higher and accuracy is way better out of my Glock 35, and 1911.

Glock 35
180 Berries
3.0 Clays
.421 crimp
1.130
Soft n easy

Glock 35
180 Berries
3.2 Titegroup
.421 Crimp
1.130
Not as soft as Clays and way dirtier

Glock 35
180 Berries
3.1 N320
.421 Crimp
1.130
Super soft and the brass is not even dirty
