I use both Berry's and Rainier plated bullets for my .38 Special and .45ACP loads, and like them. I have used both lead and jacketed load data, with no problems - but the loads were all well below the FPS limit imposed by the companies. I would NOT use them in higher velocity loads for my .357Magnum and similar. These days I stick to lead bullet data.
Some guns can have problems with plated - a buddy had a full auto MAC11 that would NOT feed the plated 9mm bullets - ran fine with cast lead and jacketed.....

So far we have used Berry's plated bullets - 180 gr. RNFP - in my son's 40 S&W FNP and - 230 gr. RN - in m1911 knock-off and both have proven to be extremely accurate, at least at ranges out to 25 yds. I think I am going to try some of their 9mm bullets next. So far I like them better than the commercial cast bullets I had been using.
