I've found that my 6" PPC revolver really likes 1.8gr of Bullseye behind a Speer 148gr HBWC (for indoor PPC). I've got some Berry's plated HB wadcutters that I want to try, but based on the info from Berry's, it sounds like it's bad to use them for light loads.
"When loading for these bullets, you need to use data that will attain 800 fps as a minimum. Most of the data for this bullet weight was created using a dead soft lead projectile with velocities under the 800 fps and will not work for a this bullet at those lower velocities."
What do they mean by "will not work?". I understand that the plating gives more friction in the bore, but are we just talking poor accuracy or a bullet that doesn't even clear the barrel?
Has anyone worked up a light load with plated wadcutters?
