All I shoot is lead from .38/.357, 44Spec/.44Mag, .45 ACP, and .45 Colt. From 600fps to 1300fps. Not a problem. I don't use Oregon Trail as they are to hard for my needs in general. I like a bullet around 12-15BHN. Seem to work well. Bullet size, bullet hardness, throat size, lack of constrictions in barrel, barrel smoothness, forcing cone angle all contribute to no leading. I've not seen it as a problem. Although I have firelapped a couple of guns due to constrictions and in .45 Colt had to ream the throats to proper size....

Have tested Tite Group in all above calibers with no leading issues that I noticed. It does discolor the top of the case though.... It is not one of the powders I generally use.

That said, the .44Spec is right up their too... but the .45 Colt is still the king.
