Ian, have you tried any with pc? In all my playing, the pc completely eliminated any leading and took that issue out of the consideration.
I have played with it a bunch, below 1050 fps. The only loads I've shot at full J velocities are 200 Lees in my .35 Remington, with gas checks and with/without lube in the grooves. I got better external numbers with lube, so that's what I went with. I used PC because I wanted a relatively soft hunting bullet for Red Deer (10.5 bhn 50/50 air cooled alloy) and still wanted to push 2200 fps. I'm going to do a lot more HV work with PC in the future.
