I just saw recently that Rainier Ballistics and Berry Bullets make plated bullets for 45-70, anyone use these before? thanks

This is not what you asked but I shoot the Rainier 200HP thru three 45 ACPs and they work very nicely.:-P

Interesting! I have used rainier with good results but not in the 45-70. I would think they would do well if not pushed too hard because the 45-70 usually like soft bullets and these are softer than jacketed and don't lead unless pushed too hard.

I can't speak for the 45-70 but I use their 9mm 147gr bullets and 380 100gr plated bullets for my subsonic submachine gun loads through the supressor. They are good bullets and the quality is fine.
I would buy them without any hesitation.

No Clue,

Seems to be what we've got now?

both are soft core bullets and fairly soft copper plating. having shot thousands of both manufactures, i would put the rainier's above the berry's.
