That's an interesting write up that Missouri bullets provides but I have zero understanding of that mathematical formula . Also I always considered a BHN of 16 or 18 to be pretty hard . Seeing how the 45acp is a low pressure round , my 357 loads would need a BHN of what a million . lol OK maybe not that hard but way harder then the soft cast lead I bought . Looks like if I'm going to load these bullets they are going to be some real moose farts .
