Plated will work. Getting a little pricey, though.
Berry's plated bullets work just fine, although they are not Match quality.

Beware that Berry's now charges as much or more than fmj.
Don't come back here and complain that Berry's are overpriced.
I warned ya.
Many jacketed pistol bullets in bulk have become a 'buy in advance' commodity.
Buy today the bullets you want to load at the end of summer.
Buy during the summer all the bullets you want to load over the winter.

Search for them all.
Also contact Speer, Rainier, Powerbond and Xtreme and Montana Gold for plated bullets.
