I want to load some 145 SWC (powder coated) for 10mm. Can't find any specific load data.
These boolits are phenomenal in my 40 SW and I want to push them to 1300 fps in my G20.
Looking for specific load data.  Thanks

Check out Lyman's Reloading Manual 49th Edition, while they do not list the 145 grain bullet, they do show 135 JHP and 150 cast.  You should be able to work up a load from there.  It is interesting that there are bullet weights out there but no reloading data for them.  I have the same issue trying to find reloading data for 220 hard cast bullets for the 10mm.  I have found some data on Google, but I am not sure that I trust the sources.

What powder?  Accurate has data for 140gr lead .

1300fps should be very easy for the 10mm with a 145gr bullet.

What powders do you have?

I know it's not the best source but handloads.com has a bunch of data for the odd weighted bullets that aren't in the normal books.

Some of the best load data for the 10mm is Glocktalk's 10mm Reloading Forum.

I have the Lymans book and confident that I could work up a load but ALWAYS prefer published data.
I have #2, #5 #7,  Red dot, Hodgen CFE, Power Pistol, so powder isn't an issue.

It is safe to use data for the next higher bullet weight.

Yes. Still start low if using different primer, case than what's published and with 10mm watch your COL.
