The lead bullets I've used are in the 18 Bhn hardness range. I DO NOT use maximum loads but prefer mid-range. I wouldn't tempt fate by trying to run 1000 rounds through my gun without cleaning the barrel thoroughly however 250 is not out of the question. (This seems to have been an issue in a number of Kaboom! events. Going match to match with your Glock without cleaning the barrel is bad juju.)

All the bullets I've used have been coated with Lee Liquid Alox. I've used this for years on all cast bullets I've shot regardless of hardness or lube already on the bullets. I can't prove it helps but it doesn't cost much and gets good reviews. It's just insurance.

Unique powder is referenced frequently giving very good results with lead bullets. I'll probably stick with it.

All the Best,
D. White
