Looking for lead bullets to reload for 460sw. From what others have said they change trajectory substantially with light loads so I will probably shoot for around 1500-1700fps as my light load. I can get the jacketed Hornady XTP's but I would like to fire something a little cheaper. Also a source would be great. Will they have to be gas checked, if so am I saving anything over the hornady offering? If its not a substantial savings than its probably not worth it.
