I believe I was loading my 180gr JHP at 8.2gr - 8.5, and would think Missouri coated 180gr would be close to that. I?ll check my log book when I get back home

As long as your gun will handle.  My go-to is 1.250, and given the truncated RN profile on these, I would load at least a few at 1.260 to see if finicky guns (1911's) will shoot them that long.

Thank you, and 10.4 blue dot right?

For 180gr, yes, 10.4gr BD, a super accurate load if you are ok with the big flash that comes with it 😀

I received a box of of Missouri bullet company?s 180gr TCFP - Grooveless #5 recently, and will likely start with an OAL of 1.25 for my P220. Worst case scenario, I?ll have to make some slight adjustments if there?s any feeding issues

I use 7.4gr. of BE-86 for most all of my coated cast lead range loads. Most of the time I chase accuracy more than velocity. You can use the same load with PP also. COL 1.260
