Use lead data for these bullets. Very soft copper, I have used them, didn't like them. I now use Frontiers. Much better.
 
Used both Berry's and Frontier in 9mm, 45 and now in .30cal rifles.

Some say lead loads. Some say FMJ loads minus about 3%. I tried lead loads and even went to the regular FMJ load although not a max load. They worked good at the FMJ loads with no troubles. If they shoot out of your gun at a light or mid FMJ load, it should be ok to keep using whatever works best.

Only haven't tried a FMJ load in .308 because I can't get the double disc powder measure to throw a load high enough without modifying it to take 3 dics or buy another type of measure.

Oops, forgot... I do them maxed out for matches and AR in 9mm and they shoot great. Can't tell the difference in groups between them and a FMJ. For these I maxed them out with 4.8gr of Titegroup with a 115gr bullet. FUN stuff. I could go lighter but why???? :)
