I finally got a chance to run a load that was mentioned by Glen. I was having trouble with leading in my 9mm using cast bullets. I talked with Glen who has been experimenting with .358 sized lead bullets. He had some success with 125gr. Hi-Tek coated bullets sized to .358. I loaded up some Lee 124 tc tumble lube design bullets, powder coated with Harbor Freight Red, sized to .358. I put them on top of 4.2 Autocomp powder. Very pleased to see no lead at all after 200 rounds. I have run a similar load through my Smith & Wesson with no where near these results. Maybe the Springfield barrel is more friendly to lead. Either way, thanks Glen for doing all the hard work.
