Anyone use Xtreme plated bullets?

Does anyone here have experience with Xtreme plated bullets?. I've never used plated bullets nor cast bullets. I'd like to try the plated 165 grain flat point bullets in 40 S&W for practice and training exercises.

Ive ordered and used their regular cast bullets. They are well made and accurate , good people to deal with. Other guy at my range uses their plated bullets. Prices are good too

I've used both Rainier and Berry plated bullets in the .40 SW and have been very happy with them. I've followed their instructions and reduced the published load data for jacketed bullets by 10%

one note - do not roll crimp a plated bullet. the crimp will cut thru the plating
