I load TG for .40 major, and I use plated bullets for minor .40, but I DON't use TG with 165gr plated bullets to try to make major!!
I have problems in some guns with the 180gr plated starting to show dispersion (indicating plating failure) at major power.

If you aren't trying to make any particular power factor and you must use TG, 4.4 will work fine with 165gr plated bullets.
HP38 or WSF are easier on the beginner for range loading.
