being thats its soft enough of an alloy to expand down below 900 fps, it could well have some base deformation while in the barrel and cause a pressure spike.
this is much akin to hornady's warning about using the non-mag XTP's in the 450.
im not suggesting that it will be unsafe, just that it might be and care needs to be taken when exploring the limits of a projectile under pressure
