bulk bullets

Have reloaded a little but not a lot and that is the reason I am asking this question. When reloading bulk bullets from someone as Winchester or Remington is it okay to use a starting load listed for a comparable bullet (same weight, type of bullet) from a bullet manufacturer such as Sierra, Speer or one of the powder manufacturers? When I have reloaded I have always used the bullet manufacturers manual and have strictly adhered to any recipe in that book. That is the reason for this question as I have the opportunity to aquire some cor lokt and power point.

Yes, using a starting load for a "similar" bullet--same construction(cup and core) and shape(pointed, flat base or whatever)--is considered safe and acceptable.
