    You can order Berrys direct. Watch Midway, they have Ranier on sale at times.

    Hello are these for serious target work or just normal shooting? Be aware that you can now ship 2000 45Acp bullets in a pre-paid USPS box for $10.00

    I've been reloading with the Rainier 230gr 45ACP's and love them. They've been pretty darn accurate for plinking loads.

    I have sold and loaded both. I think the Rainier bullets are a little better quality. They both shot pretty well but again I think the edge went to Rainier. Lasercast bullets are better quality than the Berry's lead bullets IMO. I shoot mostly X-treme bullets lead and plated. They used to me West Coast bullets. You can order direct or pick them up in Carson City, NV. Good people and they are the original owners (sold the bus to retire and then bought it back when the new owners ruined the name). I stocked up on them and have all I need for a few years. I have not compared pricing for awhile. The quality IMO is between Berry's and Rainier. The lead is not as good as Lasercast but pretty good. 775-246-3941 is their number.

    Well I think the Lasercast bullets are probably the best production lead bullets around. You can call them and they will send you samples at no charge. I have either bought them locally when I only need one box or have on occasion picked up a bunch of bullets when I am in that part of eastern Oregon. You can order right from Lasercast and that may be your best bet. The X-treme lead bullets are pretty good but the Lasercast bullets are harder. I have had better accuracy with the Lasercast in the past. I don't load much lead anymore and the ones I do we usually cast ourselves. I have been shooting Lasercast 45 Colt 250g bullets out of my Ruger Old Army conversion cylinder and have been pleased.
