My only recommendation is don’t load plated too light! I was shooting some Berry’s 158gr with only 3gr Bullseye and worked ok but tried XTreme with same low powder load and had several “stick” near the muzzle on 6 and 8” barrels. The both mic’d the same diameter so I guess it’s the difference in plating? Didn’t have any load data when starting with plating so I started off too low. Now I use jacketed load data and have no problem but I found in my guns the Berry’s 158gr THP to be the most accurate at mid range velocity. Pushed by 5gr Universal it is as accurate as any bullet ive tried.
