New load data for plated bullets

[LiveLife]

This is Accurate load data (version 3.5) for Berry's (BRY) and Rainier (RAN) plated bullets - I checked other calibers but saw plated load data only for 9mm:

This is from Hodgdon load data but for 130 gr Berry's bullet? (I guess it's safe to use for 124 gr bullets):

It is a start.

Thanks for posting the information.

Hodgdon was supposed to have completed testing of Berry's bullets in July of this year and published results. Even Jay doesn't have a good idea of when that will happen.

Berry's list the 130gr RN under the 380 super listing, not 9mm. I wonder if they are the same overall length as the 9mm 124RN, or maybe the 124HBRN? Maybe a message to Jay is in order.

Well I just emailed Hodgdon asking them for plated data.
If everyone who wants that data were to email the powder mfgs they would respond.

just sayin....

 

[john16443]

Did the same, we'll see about a response...

Well, Hodgdon load data listed 130 gr BERB bullets under 9mm ...
Walkalong PM'd me that Accurate load data has been out some time - Looking forward to new load data for Berry's bullets from Hodgdon ... Anyone know if Alliant is working on load data for Berry's bullets?

Looks like Hodgdon added load data for Berry's (BERB) HBRN-TP plated 9mm bullets in addition to 40S&W load data - http://data.hodgdon.com/cartridge_load.asp
