Never used HiTek
But I have shot a few thousand powder coated bullets in everything from a 32-20 to my 45/70. I have run them at 2300fps from my 375 Ruger, only issue I have is how soft they are due to heating them at 425 in the toaster oven. I do still lube some of them, especially if I will be shooting them in my 34" barreled Sharps. For pistol, unless I am hunting, that is all I use, and if I don't need a ton of penetration, I even hunt with them. Below is a 115gr bullet from my Marlin 1894 that went through 5 gallon jugs of water, initial velocity was 1923 fps.
