Missouri Bullet CO
I was looking at these bullets. Just to verify they are Lead only, not FMJ or plated.

I tried them once, they look good and load well, but produced way too much smoke - it was hard to see the sight.

I've shot thousands of their bullets with no complaints and they are not FMJ or plated.

I use the 38 cal 158gr SWC from them (the 12 BHN version) for my 357 target loads. Good product (and company) they ship really quickly too.
Another company I recommend and use is Dardas Cast Bullets (dardascastbullets.com). Matt makes excellent bullets at a reasonable price. He also has a large selection, and offers the option to have the bullet sized to your liking. |

Their SmallBall 9mm bullets smoke a lot and have a profile that doesn't suit all pistols, but overall I have found their products and service to be exemplary. I have probably shot a metric ton of their SmallBall and IDP4 45ACP bullets, and found their offerings to be accurate and issue-free. I recommend them highly.
I have also had good luck with Dardas, and shoot their 9mm cast offerings a lot as well.

Good cast lead bullets that are shipped fast by people of the highest integrity.

They make the classic 200g LSWC in both a softer and harder variety (Brinell 18 if I recall). Neither have any plating. I got the harder ones to work up power factor loads that would be less likely to lead the barrel- at least that's how they are advertised... I never had a leading problem with the softer ones.
I think they are great. |

I like'm. If you shoot rapidly they begin to smoke as the barrel heats up and melts the lube a bit more than a cold barrel does. So what?...I sorta like it.
They shoot and feed good in my XDm40. TB |

Another good review. I've recently ordered and shot their 158 gr. .38 spcl. rounds and .44 240 gr. rounds. They load well, shoot well and are priced right.

Excellent bullets, excellent service with very fast shipping, What's not to like.
I've used their bullets in my .45 Colt, .45 ACP, .40 S&W, .38 spl. All have been top quality. Almost afraid to say how good they are, 'cause, they will wind up too busy to take care of small customers like me. Roger
