Just what I do with these bullets. I usually load lead bullets for use in my revolvers but sometimes come across a good deal on plated bullets and buy them. When loading a 148gr LWC I charge 3.2gr W231/HP-38 but with the plated bullets I charge 3.5gr W231/HP-38. I get similar performance from each with those charges.
