My Lee book doesn't have any load data for a 115 grain round nose plated bullet using W231.
I have read that I should use lead data when loading for plated, so I went to Hogdon's website.
4.3 grains of W231 with a LRN which I'm assuming means Lead Round Nose (please correct if wrong).
This is the part I'm concered about, my Lee book has 4.3 grains for a 115 grain FMJ. I have read that lead is generally shot with less powder than FMJ.
Also, on Hogdon's site it mentions 115 GR. SPR GDHP, is the Speer Green Dot Hollow Point? What's so special about this bullet to get 4.7 grains as a starting load?
