I've got a box of Berry's plated 185gn hollow-base 45 bullets and none of my manuals show loads for this bullet.
Should I treat this projectile as a cast boolit? I think it's gotta be easier to push(less pressure needed) than jacketed, but I just don't know. I wanted to use some ETR-7 I have on hand but this powder doesn't meter well thru my Dillon at the charge weights I'm comfortable loading for my autos. It burns really clean in the 45 Colt but I throw all those charges thru an RCBS powder measure. I want to load the acp ammo on my Dillon, using 231 or Bullseye.
Any suggestions? These bullets shoot well out of my Blackhawk 45 Colt but I want to use them in the auto.
