Look good to me. I'd use them. When loading for pistols it is not necessary for the bullet to be held to the same standards as match rifle bullets. You are only hitting an object at 15 yards.

I wouldn't expect the same accuracy that you can get from a hundred round box of new Hornady component bullets -- but that doesn't mean they'll be awful, either.

I say, for the price, it's certainly worth it to try. The price is very good.
In fact... I'm going to go put my money where my mouth is!
Thanks for the link!

Scratch that-- still think they are a decent buy, but my current supply has me in good shape, so I'm not ordering them at this time.

Well, at Cabela's you can buy 100 round count 115 gr. 9mm for less then $10, and these are either Rem. or Mag Tech. And most gun shops are the same.
So they want $40 plus shipping priority mail which is $10.45, it's not worth it.
Not for pulled bullets.

If you will go to Montana Gold (https://secure3.mooseweb.com/montana.../pricelist.tpl), you can buy a case (4000 bullets) of 115 grain FMJ 9 mm bullets for $290.00 and that price includes shipping. That works out to 7.25 cents per bullet, which is cheaper than the pulled bullets. I would not buy the pulled bullets when I can get new ones for less money. The "slight ring" will affect accuracy somewhat.
