Berry's bullets
The price is right with the free shipping, the selection is ok . How do they perform? Any body using them? Have not seen any , but they sound similiar to Rainers and I have had good luck with them in pistol loads.

I've used them a bit and find them okay for plinking,etc. No discernable difference between them and Ranier.

WIth pistols, I only shoot overloads.
I have 124 gr 9mm, 200 gr .40, 185 gr 45, and 250 gr 45 Berry's Bullets.
With really hot 10mm loads, part of the jacket spins off and makes a ragged hole in the target. I have not driven the other bullets hard yet.

Not a problem with book loads. Not a problem for self defense [98% of the bullet makes one hole]. But for a real hot rodding handloader shooting targets, it is a problem.

Montana Gold bullets are cheap too, and can be driven at atomic pressure with carbines and get good groups.
