Yes. I have purchased coated bullets from brazos bullets. they use the "hi-tek" coating. I have found it to work exceptionally well in my 38spl loads at around 975fps. I have not tested it in 357 mag. and I had major issues with it in 9mm with 124g bullets at about 1150fps leaving massive amounts of coating buildup in 2 different guns. I never did pin that issue down.
I also powder coat my own cast bullets for 38spl, 357 mag, 44spl, and 44mag. I am also preparing to start coating and testing some 124g 9mm bullets.
How can we help?

I have loaded .45 ACP and 9mm coated bullets from Bayou Bullets and Blue Bullets in competition for years. They work great, shoot accurately and do not lead barrels.
