Roger that. I always buy a sample pack (usually 100) to try before going in the whole hog.

I've ditched the coated bullets for my autos. The prices aren't that much different than Speer FMJ. Probably has something to do with sales volume. I watch for sales and stock up when I find those. Sometimes I shoot indoors in the winter and those ranges don't like coated bullets. I still shoot coated in my revolvers outdoors.
I have 100 more loaded rounds of coated lead 9 mm. That's it. The other 900 that I keep ready loaded at all times now has 147 gr RNFP plated bullets from Rocky Mountain Reloading.
All my 38 Spcl loads are topped with 158 gr RNFP plated from Everglades Ammunition.
I’ve never used it, but Brazos Precision has a coated 125 TK.
