I've loaded a couple thousand of the Berry's 115 grain RNDS bullets. No problems. I like the 124 grain Berry's hollow back bullets also.

I have loaded thousands of them without any problem and normally used Unique powder. Their bullets are plated. I have in the last year changed over to Precision Delta FMJ for basically the same price (jacketed vs. plated).

Berry's is currently not taking backorders and the 9mm is not an available bullet for them (meaning not currently available). Precision will accept backorders with delivery out to about 16 weeks.

Been cranking them out now for a number of years. I use them for all my range practice sessions.

YOUR gun will tell you

Based on specific launch platform, Berrys can be fine.
Accuracy can be suspect.
All I've measured are very consistent.

(I only used Rainier plated in my ammo. I no longer use plated bullets when avoidable; I use lead or jacketed).
