Plated bullet load data for a web site.

I'm thinking of puting together a web page of plated bullet data. Berry's and Ranier. If you use these bullets you know there isn't any data provided by either maker. They just say use lead data or reduced jacketed data. While that's fine, I for one like to see numbers. If for no other reason than to verify my math.

Anyway, in order to get any data I've had to search all over the web to come up with a match for what I'm doing while wishing it was all in one place.

What do you think? It would be for reference purposes only and anyone who contributed would remain anonymous.

So if you like the idea and have a favorite load that uses Berry's or Ranier plated bullets please post here or email me through my user name.

Include bullet brand, type and weight. Powder name and charge weight.
Primer type, COL and velocity if you have it would be good too.

If I get enough info to make it worth the time I'll do it.

  I'm doing an article on just that. Working with both bullets and five cartridges. I'd be happy to relay my data, but only after publication.

  Cool. If you'll send them I'll use them.
  Here's what I've done so far. Mostly just getting the basics figured out.
