Hard to find; I've loaded 165 & 180 cast lead, neither of which satisfy.


Of a half-dozen recipes in Berry's plated in 155/165/180, *my* absolute best accuracy to date has been Berry's 155 round nose hollow base.

These are also hard to find locally.  May have to order direct I guess.

Given the bulk of my reloading has been cast lead over decades, the mystery of fitting 'best POI' for range games largely has been satisfactory with minimal effort regardless of the caliber or pistols involved.

Meanwhile, have cast 155 SWC but can't find recipe on hodgdon or other web sites.
My old printed charts(some of them REALLY old) don't have 10mm OR 40 S&W. (!!!)

Tips/tricks/links/recipes/ appreciated.

Lyman cast bullet handbook 4th edition has a section on 150 grain data.  You might want to grab a copy.

I have used jacketed data for my cast bullets over the years, most books don't show extreme loads for cast because of leading concerns.  However bullet fit and good lube go a long ways to providing great performance.

thanks for the ideas gents;

Trying to match data available with 155 hard cast SWC .401 with 'WSF' seems seems to escape my search. 

The RNHB plated 155 Berrys worked so well was hoping to repeat the performance.
Going to town tomorrow; maybe something is waiting for me  ;)
