OK or bad idea? Any experiences or prior threads? Thanks

I'm not sure myself and looking forward to an informed opinion.

I have shot plenty of Berry's plated bullets through my HK USPf and c in 45ACP. The 185gr RNHB is extremely accurate in my experience.

I am currently shooting Rainier plated bullets (185 gr. flat points) in my Glock with factory barrel. I even shot some lead bullets but decided that might not be O.K. so I switched. I like the Rainier as they are cleaner all the way around.

For the slight difference in price why not use plated over lead?

So far no problems with the Glock - in fact it seems to like what I am feeding it as it is getting easier and easier to shoot well.

No problems in my HK USPc 45, P2000 9mm, or my Glock 17. I find them to be very accurate bullets. I also use Berry's, and don't intend on changing any time soon.

They work ok in a PSP but becareful about overcrimping them. You can get leading in the gas system that way.

No problems with either HKs or Glocks that I've used with Rainier or Berry's bullets. The only caveat is not to run them high up to max, your loads should be about the same charge as if you would use a lead bullet.

If you stay under 1100-1200 fps you'll be fine many 1000's have been out the end of my glocks.

I handload and shoot X-Treme Bullet plateds thru my 10mm Glock 29 10mm and my Uzi Eagle 9mm. No problems at all.
