Bpfd17 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Hi everyone, I picked up some CFE and some berry's 147g rn and can't find any load data in the books I have. Any help is appreciated. I also have some Power pistol and bullseye powders as well, of the 3 which is best? Will be shooting with a Sig 226 and Sig 938 if that matters.

Bpfd17 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 I saw that but wasn't sure if the one load data for the 147g hornandy XTP would work for the Berry's plated bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The plated bullet may pick up a few FPS over the harder jacketed XTP, but if you load to the minimum for jacketed you’ll still be well within the safe range for a plated bullet.
