I'm currently shooting the LaserCast bullets in my 357 Mag. I have had my eye on Berry's bullets for the past couple of weeks has anyone tired the 152 Gr. RBFP Cowboy bullet its rated at 20 bhu which is just a hair under Linotype alloy. There 158 Gr. plated HP looks kinda nasty also.

Boolit size and hardness is completely gun dependent. Hard boolits can be shot softer if the boolit does not drop through the cylinders and requires enough finger pressure to push them through. ... felix

I mainly shoot the 158 Gr. SWC in my 357 have for many years from various supplier some out of business now, the hardness and size are compatible to what I shoot now. The only other bullet I have used mostly is the 146 Gr. half jacket both shoot accurately in my 357. I know I want be able to shoot the copper coated bullet to the same velocity as the cast bullet there just lead bullets with copper coating but they should provide good expansion at below magnum velocities.
