I recently acquired 500 Missouri LRN bullets 18 Brinell hardness. I'm not familiar with lead and am wondering about load data. Should I use normal lead bullet data? Anybody out there with a good pet load for these? I've been reading through my manuals but there is no mention of hardness. I have both Unique and HP-38 on hand.
I like full power loads, not target loads. Will be using 1911s mostly. Any help would be appreciated.
