    I was looking for some 9mm/115gr for my Marlin camp 9, and saw these.

    I have not tried the hollow base ones yet, but I have tried their normal plated bullets. I had no problems with them and they shot well.

    I buy Berry's by the thousands, mostly 147gr 9mm for subsonic suppressed shooting. I have bought the 115 HB bullets many times and they work just fine.

    Used a ton of the 180gr 45 cal. In 45 acp. I really like them. Little more pricey only complaint

    I've used Berrys for years and have great luck with them although I have not tried the hollow based ones. I was just looking at them the other day and was thinking of trying a few just for kicks.

    I've only used the hollow based Berrys in 45acp. They loaded and fed great, were very accurate too, but I never "pushed" them very hard.

    I couldn't pass up a deal on Berrys Blems at $42/K. They are the weight I wanted and definitely affordable.
    I can't sit in the heat and cast them for that.

    I've used the .40 S/W, worked just fine with medium+ loads, didn't push them too hard.
