missouri bullets

I have been reloading missouri bullets bullets for my revolvers for a while now and looking to use them for my9mm and 45 acp. Those of you who use them do you have any problems with leading up on your feed ramps. I would appreciate any answers from you shooters thanks.

I ordered a box of 9mm Makarov and a couple boxes of 170gr SWC in .40 S&W from Missouri Bullets.

So far, the Maks feed fine through my FEG PA-63, and the SWCs feed fine through my Sig P226.

I use their .452 for my 45acp with no issues. I use their "Bullseye" round (Brinnell 12) with no leading problem.

I use their .452 200gr LSWC Bullseye #1 with excellent results in all of my 45 acp pistols.

I have shot more than 2000 of the Cowboy #4, 200gn RNFP, (BH12) in my Colt Rail Gun. Extremely accurate and NO leading. This is listed under the 45 Colt bullets. The same bullet under 45 ACP is the IDP #4 XD at BH 18. I like the softer one. Never had a failure to feed with one either.
Other than 250 rounds of hardball when the pistol was new, the Cowboy #4 is all I have ever used.

I use the 230 gr Softball 45s. They function reliably in all of my .45s (I have 4.)
I have tested the 200 gr IDP#4 XD .45s, initial results are good. The box I ordered should be here tomorrow.
The only cast I use for 9 mm is the 147 gr Subsonic. They work fine in my CZ75BD.
FWIW, I also use MBC's IDP#5 for my .40, 158 & 180 gr in my .357s.
Other than the usual cast bullet grunginess, I've not experienced any feed ramp issues.

I use their 125 gr 9mm SWC and their 200 gr .45 SWC (Bullseye #1). I have shot the 9's from a couple of Sigs and a CZ, and I have shot the .45's from a Sig, Beretta, and a no-name 1911. I have never had leading on the feed ramp and have never really had any leading at all with MO pistol bullets. I think they make a great product, their customer service is good (but call instead of email LOL), and they are pretty much all I use for cast bullets.

I also use them in my .44mag and my .357mag - no leading or other troubles there either.

All I shoot now for pistol is lead. MBC's 9MM 125 gr SWC,125 gr 9 CONE, 45 ACP IDP#4 200 gr RNFP and 225 gr FP all work well for me. I don't have any leading problems.

No leading on the ramp, but some in the barrel of my XD45. I to tend to load a bit hot, though. Missouri is the only lead I shoot (also .357mag).

Been using them in .38, 9mm, and .45 ACP for three years now with no issues.
