I will say it again: cast them out of the right alloy, size them correctly, and use the right lube, and you are good to go. Plastic coatings are the answer to a non-existent problem.
Way back in the history of coatings on this forum, I beat the ever lovin poo out of some cast 30-06 loads, taking them as far as I could, then setting some practical limitations for a coated plain base rifle load.

after developing a practical 2700FPS load, and facing resistance similar to what you offer from another of our board of experts, I told him that you cannot remain a true expert if you do not remain current in your field.

He see's today, that I fed him no bull, and ... he's current in his knowledge.
