    My go to now is Rocky Mountain. If you belong to another forum they offer 5% off to those members plus the free shipping. Ive had great accuracy with their 115gr 9mm plated out of my ruger pc carbine and their 185gr 45acp out of my 4506-1.

    Thanks everyone. I did not realize Bobcat or Atterbury sold bullets( I have really been out of it.) I'll take a look when I need some. Berry's cost isn't as high as I thought it was. Its on par with Xtremes 'new' cost and shipping is only a 7% fee.

    Just ordered some 9's and 38's, anxious to see how the shoot. What powder are you putting behind them? https://precisionbullets.com/

    Sport Pistol or Power Pistol are the most accurate in 9mm for me.
    HP38, Bullseye, or AA#2 all do well in my GP100 using their 147gr fp.
    FYI, Power Pistol can also make some excellent heavy .38 Special loads if that's an itch you ever need scratched.

    That's great, I already use Sport Pistol for the 9's and Power Pistol and HP38 for the 38's so that works out perfect. Thanks for the info.

    I received the 9's I ordered, still waiting on the 38's. Haven't loaded any yet but they look good. I can say this compared to the SNS bullets that I normally use the Precision bullets weigh consistently within a tenth of a grain of each other, the SNS bullets can swing a full grain one way or the other. Probably doesn't really make that much of a difference but I thought that was interesting.

    Out of all the coated bullets I've tried, in 9mm and .38 Special, these are what my guns like the best....https://precisionbullets.com/

    OK! Thanks for turning me on to these. Got some of the .38 in 147gr. FP and loaded up some 357 Magnums with 12.0 Grains of 2400. 1590FPS and dead on at 100 yrds out of my Marlin 1894C, just what I've been looking for. These are now my go to bullets for shooting steel. Can't wait to load up the 9's I bought.

    Good deal!! Glad they seem to be working out for you. I just received another 1000 of those same bullets from them this morning.

    SNS coated 125 gr 9mm using tite group for now, and 200 gr swc 45acp using sport pistol. 9mm are $68 a 1000 and I get them delivered to a match at Riley or a Major here.
