That was the first place I looked before posting my question. They don't have data for my particular bullet/powder combo. They have lead data for HP-38 but not for plated or jacketed bullets in 115 gr. I know there has to be at least a few members loading Berry's 115 gr RN 9mm and HP-38. I don't think the bullet profiles are the same with the Berry's and lead round nose, is it? My main concern is the O.A.L so as not to make the cartridge too short and increase the pressure too much.
