I am just starting out in reloading. I have read the Lyman manual several times and am just waiting on my press to arrive. Loading for my .40 cal xdm, all i could find at the time was rainier 180 grain plated hollow points. They say to use lead data for their plated bullets but have not found any load recipes for lead hollow points and am looking for some advice on a good starting point for target loads with mixed brass federal 100 primers and winchester wst which i had from loading shot shells.
