Hodgdon online data center has info for some of berry's bullets.
I use 8.1 gr. HS-6 with a 155gr. Rainier fp .40 at 1.125".

I've looked on that web site and didn't see any lead bullet data.

If BERB is Barry's bullets I guess they do have 155,165,180 gr. bullet loads. Thanks much.

The companies who sell plated bullets say you can use lead bullet data OR starting to middle range jacketed bullet load data.

Yes, Hodgdon has recently added load data for Berry's plated bullets which is going to be very helpful, especially since the use of plated bullets seems to be on an up-tick...
