Berry's Plated Bullets

[leftsideshooter]

Is there anyone that can help with load data for Berry's 180gr. hollow backed round nose or HBRN .45 ACP. I have been using Titegroup, WW231 or Bullseye for 230gr. round nose, but want try the 180gr.

Thank's, Paul

You might try asking in the Handloading Forum (http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=9)... Some of those guys don't venture up to these pages very often...

Visitor from Reloading forum here. I use that exact bullet (except its 185gr.) with 5.4gr of Titegoup. My .45 loves it.

Dave, what do you have for c.o.l. ? and approx. feet per second. Sorry I am wrong, it is 185gr.

Going from memory...1.26? Anyway, its the spec. for 230gr. FMJ. That bullet has the same profile as 230gr. The weight saving comes from the hollow base.

I have not shot this load over a chronograph, but I consider it a full power load.

do the plated bullets, exclude them from the "ban" on using cast bullets in a Glock????????
