Xtreme has plated bullets!
 
Last night, I got a wild hair up my wazoo and checked in on the Xtreme website. Said they had 230 gr rn plated in stock, $73 per 500 with free shipping. So I bought some. At check out said it'd be up to 4 weeks to ship, Eh, whatever, I'm sitting on a bunch of lead cast, so I clicked buy anyways.

Today I got an email saying my order shipped. WOO HOO Xtreme rocks! Let's see if the draw my monkey fighting a shark again!

They have 200 gr FP and HP and a few other 45's in stock also.

They've got 9mm too!

You dare challenge the search master????

Plus, check RMRbullets.com, they're a little cheaper and shipping is free there also.

I'm gonna check it out, although I have almost 2000 cast booilts of various configurations...

only thing I saw on the RMR site in .45 plated was semi wadcutters...I'm gonna have to order a seating die for the lead ones I have

I was referring to 9mm for Ed from RMR.

A few of us put together a bulk order with Xtreme back in June, we just received word that it shipped and we should see it in a few days.

We've done this before, but this was he largest order yet. 252,000 was the number, if I remember correctly. Ships common carrier on a pallet or two.

Can't wait to get the press running again!

115 grain, 9mm JHP from Montana Gold are now in stock. $148/1000 delivered. More expensive than plated, but I love the way they shoot.

I don't know why.... because I've reloaded both plated and jacketed bullets.... but I just like the way jacketed shoots better than plated bullets. I also prefer hollow point, even for target and plinking. My accuracy just "seems" better. Anecdotal? Yup... but "it is what it is" (IIWII). The "experts" out there say that hollow points are more accurate, but my guns and boolits will outshoot my skills any day of the week.
