Rainier bullets are made just about 3 miles from where I'm sitting. Their new addition to the mfg. process is a second burnishing that makes the bullets quite a bit better looking. They have always performed well.
Since the EPA invaded our ranges locally, Rainiers and fully jacketed bullets are all we can fire. No lead bullets and not even jacketed bullets with some lead exposed at the base are allowed.
The only problem with Rainier bullets is in magnums. Over about 1150 fps you are at some risk of shedding the plating, though it has never happened to me. I use them in .45acp quite hot and never had a problem.
