Got some Berry's bullets in .38 special , they're 125 grain and plated . Nobody seems to have definitive load data for this "plated" projectile ! Berry's says , keep towards the low to mid range of jacketed data of the same weight ! Light crimp and below 1200 fps ....

Any data for a medium load start using Bullseye would be great thanks !!!

Shooting from a Ruger GP100 , 4'' barrel in .357 magnum (using 38's to compete)

Treat them like hardcast lead.

thanks , that's about what I came up with as well ! I was looking for re-affirmation (or a double-check) because I always go to two sources !
