Actually, I had specified 80% at 30 yards which is more like Mod. 65% at 30 yards would be closer to IC.

I understand that the issue with nickel plating is whether it is actually plated, or just washed - the latter apparently does not add much to the hardness. Thanks for the reloading tips, I may have to go down that path.

I have not had an opportunity to have the bore constriction measured, as I don't have a micrometer.
