warningshot: I don't recall any difference in accuracy between plated and FMJ. For me, hard cast bullets have been the most accurate, but so dirty that I don't mind a marginal loss of accuracy by going to plated.

FMJs are too expensive. However, I do have some jacketed Hornady hollow points and some plated Berry's for 44 Magnum. I'll cook up some loads and post up when I have results.
