Hello,
I was reading in Handloader mag the other day about the 9mm reloading they did.

One thing they mentioned was that you could use the load data for the XTP bullet in place of the FMJ data.

Is this pretty much standard practice for all calibers as long as the weights are the same? I ask, because I find much more data for the XTP than I do for FMJ and this would sure make things easy if true.

Thanks for any remarks pro or con...
