Being retired and living out in the country, I do a lot of pistol shooting for recreation--paper and metal targets...and a few turtles in my ponds and skunks in the yard. I reload for accuracy using lead and plated bullets. I buy plated bullets from X-Treme and Barry's. I don't push them hard since I have found better accuracy with lower velocities. For example, I run 230 grain 45 ACP bullets at about 725-750 fps. In all, I load 32, 380, 9mm, 9mm Makarov, 40 S&W, 41, 44, and 45.
When I need velocity, such as for personal protection, I use jacketed bullets.
