Soon after Christmas I was gifted a S&W Bodyguard. Ammo is scarce, so I decided to reload . It took about a month to get a Lee 4 die set. I got 500 mixed brass online at Capital Cartridge. I have CCI #500 small pistol primers and Tite Group and Win 231powder. Then I got 500 plated 95 grain bullets from Everglades.
I chose Tite Group to reload with because it showed the largest range of high to low powder charge. For Hornady 95 grain FMJ bullets it showed 2.7 to 3.2 grain loads for low and high powder charges. So I loaded 3.0 grains of Tite Group under the 95 grain plated bullets The reloading data is for copper clad bullets, NOT copper plated bullets at an OAL of .970 inches. Is the switch of plated for copper clad safe ???
