Fired off 150 rounds of round nose Rainiers yesterday. Not a hitch and reasonably accurate. So far the Kimber has shot almost 500 rounds of mixed FMJ, HP, and Rainier plated (all 230 grains) without problems*. I loaded the Rainiers using the same method as with non-plated bullets - a slight bell and seating with RCBS dies finished with a Lee factory crimp die.
A good bullet for the money.
* Only problem has been shooting with reloaded Korean PMC brass. The brass seems too thin resulting in a wrinkled case below the base of a seated bullet. Tried to feed several of the wrinked cartidges and one failed to feed. But in the interest of safety I discarded all my PMC brass.
