9mm powder coated lead loads

[Bulldozer1215]

I am looking for good powder coated lead loads.
I’ve looked online and in my books but this is the first time loading lead and don’t have any books yet for lead loads.
I have the powders below available. Also cci magnum primers.

I've been satisfied with Missouri Bullets for a while now.

Any of your listed powders would work in most handgun loads.

Use the data that matches or closely matches your bullet weight and powder availability. I use jacketed data with traditionally lubed bullets for all pistol loads.

Are you looking for loads or bullets?

For loads I use lead data for coated lead bullets.

Unique would be my choice of the three powders.

Should be oodles of data out there for Unique.

I use Missouri Bullets coated 9mm 125 g SWC and like them

Grab Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook 4th edition. There's no powder coated specific loads if that's what you're asking. Use lead load data.

Thanks for the help and which book to get next.

What bullet weight?
If available use data for a plain lubed lead bullet of the same weight,

Coated lead = lead, nothing special.
Look for powder company data. Get a Lyman lead bullet manual.
Use more case mouth flare and, after seating and crimping first bullet or two, pull bullets and inspect that bullet diameter hasn't changed and coating is not damaged.

Be careful with the Tite group with coated bullets. I had severe leading with it in 9mm and .380. And it was not limited to one gun or make.

Unique. Don’t worry about leading, use a copper scrubby and clean it out.

I agree with others about Lyman's manual. Lyman's 50th edition list lead data also.

Also, Hodgdon does have some lead bullet data.

As a powder to learn with I would pick unique. I have and shoot all three of those powders and they work well. If you have any intrest in casting yourself the lee tumble lube cone points are a wonderful place to start. Tumble lube is easy to test a few and they powder coat well also.
