Hello everyone,
Just received my order of 200 Gr RNFP plated 45 ACP bullets from RMR.
Do I use the lead load data for plated?
Hornady's reloading manual load data for 200gr LEAD C/T (COL 1.225) and 200gr SWC (COL 1.2)
800FPS 4.6gr 850 FPS 5.0gr 900FPS 5.3gr 950FPS 5.7gr.
Hodgdon's website load data for 200gr cast LSWC (COL 1.225)
4.8gr 877FPS and 5.4gr 957FPS
I know i'm suppose to start low and work my way up. Will the load data for LSWC matters if I'm using RNFP?
Do I use the COL? or use the Plunk test?
also is there a measurement to determine when my taper crimp is good to go?
Thank you
