I just made my first order of coated lead bullets from MBC. I got the 357 mag grooveless 158gn SWC and the 44 mag 240gn RNFP. I am looking thru my Lyman 50th manual and the alliant powder website to determine the loads to use and not sure what to use. I currently have 2400 powder and BE-86. In the Lyman manual, they list a 155 gn and a 160 gn. The 155gn states using 2400 at 10.6 to 14 grn of powder but the alliant site does not list a cast bullet for 2400. I have searched this website for coated bullets and some say to use lead data and some say you can use jacketed data. This is my first attempt at using coated bullets so any help would be great.
