I have only loaded JHP in the past but this cost way to much to buy 100 @ a time from Walmart & I want to see what I can load from elsewhere.
The load data I want to load 380 ACP & 9 mm Luger both with a 115 gran bullet & the only load data I can come up with is for a 115g JHP (.355) or cast. I was think about a plated flat nose or lead but they are .356 same for the the 38/357 the plated & lead are .358 vs .357. & .451 vs .452.
My questions would be is the load data for cast already talking about .356 instead of .355 & so on? Does the plated @ .356 load the same as jacked @ .355? How to adjust for the differences?
One more question would be can I shoot lead in my revolver that is ported at the end of the barrel(it said not to use lead shoot but nothing about lead bullets that I can remember)?
I've been loading for a while but I've never tried o tweak anything so I fell like a newbie at this & I guess I still am as far as this goes.
