Hello all. I will start with that I am brand new to the reloading world. I bought some equipment a few years ago but never did anything but I am now ready to start this adventure. I have done research both on manufactures websites and forums to learn as much as possible. I am in no rush and want to do things safely and the correct way. Which leads me to my first of many questions.
When I bought my components I decided on Bullseye power and RMR 115 Gr plated bullets. Now, looking over the Lee and Lyman manuals, Alliant and RMR websites I do no see a load in 9mm for this combination. What I do see are loads for other 115 Gr bullets, primarily FMJ or Hornady XTPs. The question I have is can I use the load data for these on a plated bullet. I have seen some forum posting about this and the consensus seems to be yes as long as the weight is the same but load them to starting recommendations. Can any of you experienced guys shed light on this. Also any other links or tips for a newbie is appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help.
