Ordered a box of 500 .45cal bullets before lunch on Monday,bullets were delivered on wed afternoon exceptional fast service.Have been buying Berrys from dsh for awhile paying 72.50 plus tax =77.93,bayou bullets 67.50 including shipping saved over 10.00 and did not have to drive from quincy to tally.If they shoot as well as ihave seen others shoot them I will be buying more.

I like them a lot. Their formula is so hard you can load em hot, just like jacketed bullets, Lord knows I do :coolguy:

I like the 180 grain truncated cone in my 10mm.

I had bad luck with them in .40 cal. They seemed to be oversized and would stick in the chamber without being put through a Lee Factory Crimp die. After the trip through the FCD, they weren't accurate any more. Tolerances might be more forgiving in .45.

Call Donny!

I got a batch of those one time, called him, he replaced the whole batch including paying the shipping, PDQ.

I keep meaning to, but I found a way to make the Rainier bullets accurate in my pistol again, so I have about 5K left to shoot before I'm looking to buy again. Probably in July.

That's ok AB,if you have a problem with that 40 glock just order some plastic bullets and plastic brass

I had the aforementioned problems with the .40, but I understand that may have just been a bad batch. I'm shooting Xtreme heavy plated for now.

I have not seen enough cost difference to justify shooting lead in my shopping, esp in 9mm, 38, and such.

They are only marginally cheaper than Xtreme and Xtreme runs free shipping deals several times a year.
