I need to build up my supply of .357 rounds. I want to try something different than the Hornady XTPs that I have used since I started reloading for revolver.
I was wondering what type of bullet to stock up on. Plated, powder coated, or something else? Just want something to practice with, in place of a jacketed bullet. Something more economical..
Also a question about bullet weight. I have used 158 grain bullets but wonder if maybe 125s or thereabouts would do just as well. I want to save my remaining Hornady 158 XTPs for a rainy day.
I do have a pretty good selection of powders to use. HP-38,296,CFE Pistol,H-110, Accurate #9, BE-86 and Unique.
All opinions and advice are appreciated..
