Loading Data?

[offtarget]

Am I safe in using say a Speer load manual load data on different brand of bullets?
Example: 52grn boat tail hollow point speer bullet info, is it ok to use that same data on hornady bullet 52 grn hollow point boat tale.
If yes does that mean I could cross over speer data to any bullet brand as long as bullets is same style and weight?

Thanks for your help

You will be fine if you use min load made for the bullet you are using, and go up from there.

^^^^^^What Deano said^^^^^^^ Just don't use lead bullet loads as a guide for copper/mono metal bullets.

As long as you are using "Like construction" then yes, data is data.
Plated bullets, such as the Deep Curls, or Dead-Soft copper that has been heat treated(Barnes) are their own animals.

This is a "mid range" load for a regular jacketed bullet, only the Deep Squirrel substituted.
